NAME

       rpma_write - initiate the write operation

SYNOPSIS

             #include <librpma.h>

             struct rpma_conn;
             struct rpma_mr_local;
             struct rpma_mr_remote;
             int rpma_write(struct rpma_conn *conn,
                             struct rpma_mr_remote *dst, size_t dst_offset,
                             const struct rpma_mr_local *src, size_t src_offset,
                             size_t len, int flags, const void *op_context);

DESCRIPTION

       rpma_write()  initiates  transferring  data from the local memory to the remote memory. To
       write a 0 bytes message, set src and dst to NULL and src_offset, dst_offset and len to 0.

       The attribute flags set the completion notification indicator:

       •  RPMA_F_COMPLETION_ON_ERROR - generate the completion on error

       •  RPMA_F_COMPLETION_ALWAYS  -  generate  the  completion  regardless  of  result  of  the
          operation.

       op_context is returned in the wr_id field of the completion (struct ibv_wc).

RETURN VALUE

       The rpma_write() function returns 0 on success or a negative error code on failure.

ERRORS

       rpma_write() can fail with the following errors:

       •  RPMA_E_INVAL - conn == NULL || flags == 0

       •  RPMA_E_INVAL - dst == NULL && (src != NULL || src_offset != 0 || dst_offset != 0 || len
          != 0)

       •  RPMA_E_INVAL - src == NULL && (dst != NULL || src_offset != 0 || dst_offset != 0 || len
          != 0)

       •  RPMA_E_PROVIDER - ibv_post_send(3) failed
