SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <infiniband/verbs.h>

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

DESCRIPTION         top

       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>.

       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         top

       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         top

       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.

       The attribute source_qpn is supported only on UD QP, without flow
       steering RX should not be possible.

       Use ibv_qp_to_qp_ex() to get the ibv_qp_ex for accessing the send
       ops iterator interface, when QP create attr
       IBV_QP_INIT_ATTR_SEND_OPS_FLAGS is used.

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

       IBV_QPT_DRIVER does not represent a specific service and is used
       for vendor specific QP logic.
