We're not talking about uAPI. This is kAPI. Using enums there is OK. Sure, there's no disagreement about that. The point was that, as both uAPI and kAPI should be documented, and we can't use enums for uAPI, we need a way to document non-enum types, which we could then use to document the kAPI the same way. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
