Claim 0:
1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
determining, at a wireless device, prior to receiving a first control plane message from a network node, a specific processing order for processing a plurality of user plane functions;
transmitting, by the wireless device to the network node, a second control plane message comprising a request that indicates the specific processing order;
receiving, from the network node, the first control plane message comprising information that indicates a processing order for processing the plurality of user plane functions comprising a service data adaptation protocol layer, a packet data convergence protocol layer and a radio link control layer, wherein the processing order is based on at least one of a type of service, a deployment type, a connection mode, one or more capabilities of the network node, or one or more capabilities of a wireless device; and
processing, at the wireless device, the plurality of user plane functions based on the processing order,
wherein the processing order is indicated using numbers, indexes, identities, or types, each representing a particular processing order that specifies a sequence of processes among the service data adaptation protocol layer, a packet data convergence protocol layer and a radio link control layer that are included in the plurality of user plane functions.
