NAME

       ibv_create_ah, ibv_destroy_ah - create or destroy an address handle (AH)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <infiniband/verbs.h>

       struct ibv_ah *ibv_create_ah(struct ibv_pd *pd,
                                    struct ibv_ah_attr *attr);

       int ibv_destroy_ah(struct ibv_ah *ah);

DESCRIPTION

       ibv_create_ah()  creates  an address handle (AH) associated with the protection domain pd.
       The argument attr is an ibv_ah_attr struct, as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.

       struct ibv_ah_attr {
               struct ibv_global_route grh;            /* Global Routing Header (GRH) attributes */
               uint16_t                dlid;           /* Destination LID */
               uint8_t                 sl;             /* Service Level */
               uint8_t                 src_path_bits;  /* Source path bits */
               uint8_t                 static_rate;    /* Maximum static rate */
               uint8_t                 is_global;      /* GRH attributes are valid */
               uint8_t                 port_num;       /* Physical port number */
       };

       struct ibv_global_route {
               union ibv_gid           dgid;           /* Destination GID or MGID */
               uint32_t                flow_label;     /* Flow label */
               uint8_t                 sgid_index;     /* Source GID index */
               uint8_t                 hop_limit;      /* Hop limit */
               uint8_t                 traffic_class;  /* Traffic class */
       };

       ibv_destroy_ah() destroys the AH ah.

RETURN VALUE

       ibv_create_ah() returns a pointer to the created AH, or NULL if the request fails.

NOTES

       If port flag IBV_QPF_GRH_REQUIRED  is  set  then  ibv_create_ah()  must  be  created  with
       definition of 'struct ibv_ah_attr { .is_global = 1; .grh = {...}; }'.

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