NAME

ibv_create_qp_ex, ibv_destroy_qp - create or destroy a queue pair (QP)

CONTENTS

SYNOPSIS

#include <infiniband/verbs.h> 

struct ibv_qp *ibv_create_qp_ex(struct ibv_context *context, struct ibv_qp_init_attr_ex *qp_init_attr);

int ibv_destroy_qp(struct ibv_qp *qp);

DESCRIPTION

ibv_create_qp_ex() creates a queue pair (QP) associated with the protection domain pd. The argument qp_init_attr_ex is an ibv_qp_init_attr_ex struct, as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.

struct ibv_qp_init_attr_ex {
void                   *qp_context;     /* Associated context of the QP */
struct ibv_cq          *send_cq;        /* CQ to be associated with the Send Queue (SQ) */
struct ibv_cq          *recv_cq;        /* CQ to be associated with the Receive Queue (RQ) */
struct ibv_srq         *srq;            /* SRQ handle if QP is to be associated with an SRQ, otherwise NULL */
struct ibv_qp_cap       cap;            /* QP capabilities */
enum ibv_qp_type        qp_type;        /* QP Transport Service Type: IBV_QPT_RC, IBV_QPT_UC, IBV_QPT_UD or IBV_QPT_RAW_PACKET */
int                     sq_sig_all;     /* If set, each Work Request (WR) submitted to the SQ generates a completion entry */
uint32_t                comp_mask;      /* Identifies valid fields */
struct ibv_pd          *pd;             /* PD to be associated with the QP */
struct ibv_xrcd        *xrcd;           /* XRC domain to be associated with the target QP */
enum ibv_qp_create_flags create_flags;  /* Creation flags for this QP */
uint16_t                max_tso_header; /* Maximum TSO header size */
struct ibv_rwq_ind_table *rwq_ind_tbl;  /* Indirection table to be associated with the QP */
struct ibv_rx_hash_conf  rx_hash_conf;  /* RX hash configuration to be used */
};

struct ibv_qp_cap { uint32_t max_send_wr; /* Requested max number of outstanding WRs in the SQ */ uint32_t max_recv_wr; /* Requested max number of outstanding WRs in the RQ */ uint32_t max_send_sge; /* Requested max number of scatter/gather (s/g) elements in a WR in the SQ */ uint32_t max_recv_sge; /* Requested max number of s/g elements in a WR in the SQ */ uint32_t max_inline_data;/* Requested max number of data (bytes) that can be posted inline to the SQ, otherwise 0 */ }; enum ibv_qp_create_flags { IBV_QP_CREATE_BLOCK_SELF_MCAST_LB = 1 << 1, /* Prevent self multicast loopback */ IBV_QP_CREATE_SCATTER_FCS = 1 << 8, /* FCS field will be scattered to host memory */ IBV_QP_CREATE_CVLAN_STRIPPING = 1 << 9, /* CVLAN field will be stripped from incoming packets */ }; struct ibv_rx_hash_conf { uint8_t rx_hash_function; /* RX hash function, use enum ibv_rx_hash_function_flags */ uint8_t rx_hash_key_len; /* RX hash key length */ uint8_t *rx_hash_key; /* RX hash key data */ uint64_t rx_hash_fields_mask; /* RX fields that should participate in the hashing, use enum ibv_rx_hash_fields */ };

The function ibv_create_qp_ex() will update the qp_init_attr_ex->cap struct with the actual QP values of the QP that was created; the values will be greater than or equal to the values requested.

ibv_destroy_qp() destroys the QP qp.

RETURN VALUE

ibv_create_qp_ex() returns a pointer to the created QP, or NULL if the request fails. Check the QP number (qp_num) in the returned QP.

ibv_destroy_qp() returns 0 on success, or the value of errno on failure (which indicates the failure reason).

NOTES

The attributes max_recv_wr and max_recv_sge are ignored by ibv_create_qp_ex() if the QP is to be associated with an SRQ.

ibv_destroy_qp() fails if the QP is attached to a multicast group.
