14. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
transmitting a transport block that comprises a plurality of code blocks;
transmitting an indication to group code blocks of the plurality of code blocks of the transport block for feedback reporting, wherein:
a first set of code blocks of the plurality of code blocks are grouped into one or more code block groups comprising a first quantity of code blocks,
the one or more code block groups of the first quantity of code blocks comprise a first plurality of code block groups of the first quantity of code blocks,
a second set of code blocks of the plurality of code blocks are grouped into one or more code block groups comprising a second quantity of code blocks,
the one or more code block groups of the second quantity of code blocks comprise a second plurality of code block groups of the second quantity of code blocks,
the first quantity of code blocks is different from the second quantity of code blocks,
each code block group comprises a distinct subset of code blocks of the plurality of code blocks, and
each code block group of the one or more code block groups comprising the first quantity of code blocks comprises a same number of code blocks; and
receiving an acknowledgement or negative-acknowledgement for each code block group based at least in part on the indication.
