NAME

       rpma_mr_remote_from_descriptor - create a memory region from a descriptor

SYNOPSIS

             #include <librpma.h>

             struct rpma_mr_remote;
             int rpma_mr_remote_from_descriptor(const void *desc, size_t desc_size,
                             struct rpma_mr_remote **mr_ptr);

DESCRIPTION

       Create a remote memory region's structure based on the provided descriptor with a network-
       transferable description of the memory region local to the remote peer.

SECURITY WARNING

       An attacker might modify the serialized remote memory registration configuration while  it
       is  transferred via an unsecured connection (e.g. rdma_cm private data), which might cause
       data  corruption  when  writing  to  a  different  location.   Users  should  avoid  using
       rpma_conn_get_private_data(3)  and  rpma_conn_req_get_private_data(3)  API  calls and they
       should utilize TLS/SSL connections  to  transfer  all  configuration  data  between  peers
       instead.

RETURN VALUE

       The  rpma_mr_remote_from_descriptor()  function  returns  0 on success or a negative error
       code on failure. rpma_mr_remote_from_descriptor() does not set *mr_ptr value on failure.

ERRORS

       rpma_mr_remote_from_descriptor() can fail with the following errors:

       •  RPMA_E_INVAL - desc or mr_ptr is NULL

       •  RPMA_E_INVAL - incompatible descriptor size

       •  RPMA_E_NOSUPP - deserialized information does not represent a valid memory region

       •  RPMA_E_NOMEM - out of memory
