15// Package ordering is a clientv3 wrapper that caches response header revisions
16// to detect ordering violations from stale responses. Users may define a
17// policy on how to handle the ordering violation, but typically the client
18// should connect to another endpoint and reissue the request.
19//
20// The most common situation where an ordering violation happens is a client
21// reconnects to a partitioned member and issues a serializable read. Since the
22// partitioned member is likely behind the last member, it may return a Get
23// response based on a store revision older than the store revision used to
24// service a prior Get on the former endpoint.
25//
26// First, create a client:
27//
28// cli, err := clientv3.New(clientv3.Config{Endpoints: []string{"localhost:2379"}})
29// if err != nil {
30// // handle error!
31// }
32//
33// Next, override the client interface with the ordering wrapper:
34//
35// vf := func(op clientv3.Op, resp clientv3.OpResponse, prevRev int64) error {
36// return fmt.Errorf("ordering: issued %+v, got %+v, expected rev=%v", op, resp, prevRev)
37// }
38// cli.KV = ordering.NewKV(cli.KV, vf)
39//
40// Now calls using 'cli' will reject order violations with an error.
