From 053b48ca7beab4dad63b6a4e6cf568f2e1f1a87c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Hefty Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2012 16:00:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] libibverbs: Add support for XRC QPs XRC queue pairs: xrc defines two new types of QPs. The initiator, or send-side, xrc qp behaves similar to a send- only RC qp. xrc send qp's are managed through the existing QP functions. The send_wr structure is extended in a back- wards compatible way to support posting sends on a send xrc qp, which require specifying the remote xrc srq. The target, or receive-side, xrc qp behaves differently than other implemented qp's. A recv xrc qp can be created, modified, and destroyed like other qp's through the existing calls. The qp_init_attr structure is extended for xrc qp's. Because xrc recv qp's are bound to an xrcd, rather than a pd, it is intended to be used among multiple processes. Any process with access to an xrcd may allocate and connect an xrc recv qp. The actual xrc recv qp is allocated and managed by the kernel. If the owning process explicit destroys the xrc recv qp, it is destroyed. However, if the xrc recv qp is left open when the user process exits or closes its device, then the lifetime of the xrc recv qp is bound with the lifetime of the xrcd.
