I was concerned about expressing it such that the reader would assume that calling this means there will be no more data coming, but there might be things in the queues etc. Expressing it in terms of the state of transmission is clearer. /* * rpmsg_set_flow_control() - request remote to pause/resume transmission ... * @enable: Pause transmission ... */ Does that sound okay and clear to you?
