[Click] Packet ordering

[kevin_mitchell at agilent.com]

I have a simple question about packet order.  Suppose I have a simple element with one input and two outputs.  When a packet arrives at the input it is processed and sent out of output[0].  However, occasionally, as a result of this processing, an additional packet is constructed and sent to output[1], i.e. there is a call to output(1).push within the simple_action method.  Both outputs are connected to the same queue.  Are there any guarantees about the relative ordering of these packets in the queue, i.e. does the call to output(1).push result in this packet being queued before the output(0) packet?  Or does the "forwarding" of the packets to the next element(s) take place after the simple_action method has terminated?
 
Thanks,
