IBV_CREATE_CQ_EX(3)     Libibverbs Programmer's Manual     IBV_CREATE_CQ_EX(3)

NAME
       ibv_create_cq_ex - create a completion queue (CQ)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <infiniband/verbs.h>

       struct ibv_cq_ex *ibv_create_cq_ex(struct ibv_context *context,
                                          struct ibv_create_cq_attr_ex *cq_attr);

DESCRIPTION
       ibv_create_cq_ex() creates a completion queue (CQ) for RDMA device
       context context.  The argument cq_attr is a pointer to struct
       ibv_cq_init_attr_ex as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.

       struct ibv_cq_init_attr_ex {
               int                     cqe;               /* Minimum number of entries required for CQ */
               void                    *cq_context;       /* Consumer-supplied context returned for completion events */
               struct ibv_comp_channel *channel;          /* Completion channel where completion events will be queued. May be NULL if completion events will not be used. */
               int                     comp_vector;       /* Completion vector used to signal completion events. Must be >= 0 and < context->num_comp_vectors. */
               uint64_t                wc_flags;          /* The wc_flags that should be returned in ibv_poll_cq_ex. Or'ed bit of enum ibv_wc_flags_ex. */
               uint32_t                comp_mask;         /* compatibility mask (extended verb). */
               uint32_t                flags              /* One or more flags from enum ibv_create_cq_attr_flags */
       };

       enum ibv_cq_init_attr_mask {
               IBV_CQ_INIT_ATTR_MASK_FLAGS             = 1 << 0,
       };

       enum ibv_create_cq_attr_flags {
               IBV_CREATE_CQ_ATTR_SINGLE_THREADED      = 1 << 0, /* This CQ is used from a single threaded, thus no locking is required */
       };

Polling an extended CQ
       In order to poll an extended CQ efficiently, a user could use the
       following functions.

       Completion iterator functions

              int ibv_start_poll(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq, struct ibv_poll_cq_attr
              *attr)
              Start polling a batch of work completions.  attr is given in
              order to make this function easily extensible in the future.
              This function either returns 0 on success or an error code
              otherwise. When no completions are available on the CQ, ENOENT
              is returned, but the CQ remains in a valid state. On success,
              querying the completion's attribute could be done using the
              query functions described below. If an error code is given,
              end_poll shouldn't be called.

              int ibv_next_poll(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq)
              This function is called in order to get the next work
              completion. It has to be called after start_poll and before
              end_poll are called. This function either returns 0 on success
              or an error code otherwise. When no completions are available on
              the CQ, ENOENT is returned, but the CQ remains in a valid state.
              On success, querying the completion's attribute could be done
              using the query functions described below. If an error code is
              given, end_poll should still be called, indicating this is the
              end of the polled batch.

              void ibv_end_poll(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq)
              This function indicates the end of polling batch of work
              completions. After calling this function, the user should start
              a new batch by calling start_poll.

       Polling fields in the completion
              Below members and functions are used in order to poll the
              current completion. The current completion is the completion
              which the iterator points to (start_poll and next_poll advances
              this iterator). Only fields that the user requested via wc_flags
              in ibv_create_cq_ex could be queried. In addition, some fields
              are only valid in certain opcodes and status codes.

              uint64_t wr_id - Can be accessed directly from struct ibv_cq_ex.

              enum ibv_wc_status - Can be accessed directly from struct
              ibv_cq_ex.

              enum ibv_wc_opcode ibv_wc_read_opcode(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get
              the opcode from the current completion.

              uint32_t ibv_wc_read_vendor_err(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the
              vendor error from the current completion.

              uint32_t ibv_wc_read_byte_len(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the
              vendor error from the current completion.

              uint32_t ibv_wc_read_imm_data(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the
              immediate data field from the current completion.

              uint32_t ibv_wc_read_qp_num(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the QP
              number field from the current completion.

              uint32_t ibv_wc_read_src_qp(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the
              source QP number field from the current completion.

              int ibv_wc_read_wc_flags(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the QP flags
              field from the current completion.

              uint16_t ibv_wc_read_pkey_index(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the
              pkey index field from the current completion.

              uint32_t ibv_wc_read_slid(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the slid
              field from the current completion.

              uint8_t ibv_wc_read_sl(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the sl field
              from the current completion.

              uint8_t ibv_wc_read_dlid_path_bits(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get
              the dlid_path_bits field from the current completion.

              uint64_t ibv_wc_read_completion_ts(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get
              the completion timestamp from the current completion.

              uint16_t ibv_wc_read_cvlan(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get the CVLAN
              field from the current completion.

              uint32_t ibv_wc_read_flow_tag(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq); Get flow
              tag from the current completion.

RETURN VALUE
       ibv_create_cq_ex() returns a pointer to the CQ, or NULL if the request
       fails.

NOTES
       ibv_create_cq_ex() may create a CQ with size greater than or equal to
       the requested size. Check the cqe attribute in the returned CQ for the
       actual size.

       CQ should be destroyed with ibv_destroy_cq.
