RDMA_POST_SENDV(3)    Librdmacm Programmer's Manual   RDMA_POST_SENDV(3)

NAME

       rdma_post_sendv - post a work request to send a message.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <rdma/rdma_verbs.h>

       int rdma_post_sendv (struct rdma_cm_id *id, void *context, struct
       ibv_sge *slg, int nsge, int flags);

ARGUMENTS

       id          A reference to a communication identifier where the
                   message buffer will be posted.

       context     User-defined context associated with the request.

       slg         A scatter-gather list of memory buffers posted as a
                   single request.

       nsge        The number of scatter-gather entries in the slg
                   array.

       flags       Optional flags used to control the send operation.

DESCRIPTION

       Posts a work request to the send queue of the queue pair
       associated with the rdma_cm_id.  The contents of the posted
       buffers will be sent to the remote peer of a connection.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns 0 on success, or -1 on error.  If an error occurs, errno
       will be set to indicate the failure reason.

NOTES

       The user is responsible for ensuring that the remote peer has
       queued a receive request before issuing the send operations.  For
       a list of supported flags, see ibv_post_send.  Unless the send
       request is using inline data, the message buffers must have been
       registered before being posted, and the buffers must remain
       registered until the send completes.

       Send operations may not be posted to an rdma_cm_id or the
       corresponding queue pair until it has been connected.

       The user-defined context associated with the send request will be
       returned to the user through the work completion wr_id, work
       request identifier, field.
