1. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory comprising computer program code,
the at least one memory and computer program code configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to
determine to apply selective reordering of data units at a user equipment;
indicate the decision to apply selective reordering to the user equipment; and
indicate the decision to apply the selective reordering in an R bit of a header of the data unit,
wherein the selective reordering temporarily alters packet data convergence protocol window behavior in the user equipment such that a packet data convergence protocol layer in the user equipment delivers, to upper layer(s), at least one of stored data units with an associated count value that is less than the count value associated with a data unit at the user equipment or stored data units with consecutively associated count values starting from the count value associated with a data unit at the user equipment.
