.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.B ibv_create_srq()
creates a shared receive queue (SRQ) associated with the protection domain
.I pd\fR.
.PP
.B ibv_create_xrc_srq()
creates an XRC shared receive queue (SRQ) associated with the protection domain
.I pd\fR,
the XRC domain
.I xrc_domain
and the CQ which will hold the XRC completion
.I xrc_cq\fR.
.PP
The argument
.I srq_init_attr
is an ibv_srq_init_attr struct, as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.
.PP
.nf
struct ibv_srq_init_attr {
.in +8
void *srq_context; /* Associated context of the SRQ */
struct ibv_srq_attr attr; /* SRQ attributes */
.in -8
};
.sp
.nf
struct ibv_srq_attr {
.in +8
uint32_t max_wr; /* Requested max number of outstanding work requests (WRs) in the SRQ */
uint32_t max_sge; /* Requested max number of scatter elements per WR */
uint32_t srq_limit; /* The limit value of the SRQ (irrelevant for ibv_create_srq) */
.in -8
};
.fi
.PP
The function
.B ibv_create_srq()
will update the
.I srq_init_attr
struct with the original values of the SRQ that was created; the
values of max_wr and max_sge will be greater than or equal to the
values requested.
.PP
.B ibv_destroy_srq()
destroys the SRQ
.I srq\fR.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.B ibv_create_srq()
returns a pointer to the created SRQ, or NULL if the request fails.
.PP
.B ibv_destroy_srq()
returns 0 on success, or the value of errno on failure (which indicates the failure reason).
.SH "NOTES"
.B ibv_destroy_srq()
fails if any queue pair is still associated with this SRQ.
