NAME

rpma_recv - initiate the receive operation

SYNOPSIS

#include <librpma.h>

struct rpma_conn;
struct rpma_mr_local;
int rpma_recv (struct rpma_conn *conn, struct rpma_mr_local *dst, size_t offset, size_t len,
const void *op_context);

DESCRIPTION

rpma_recv () initiates the receive operation which prepares a buffer for a message sent from other side of the connection. Please see rpma_send (3).

All buffers prepared via rpma_recv (3) form an unordered set. When a message arrives it is placed in one of the buffers awaitaning and a completion for the receive operation is generated.

A buffer for an incoming message have to be prepared beforehand.

The order of buffers in the set does not affect the order of completions of receive operations get via rpma_cq_get_wc (3).

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

NOTE

In the RDMA standard, receive requests form an ordered queue. The RPMA does NOT inherit this guarantee.

RETURN VALUE

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

ERRORS

rpma_recv () can fail with the following errors:

RPMA_E_INVAL - conn == NULL

RPMA_E_INVAL - dst == NULL && (offset != 0 || len != 0)

RPMA_E_PROVIDER - ibv_post_recv (3) failed
