ibv_bind_mw - post a request to bind a type 1 memory window to a memory region
#include <infiniband/verbs.h> int ibv_bind_mw(struct ibv_qp *qp, struct ibv_mw *mw, struct ibv_mw_bind *mw_bind);
ibv_bind_mw() posts to the queue pair qp a request to bind the memory window mw according to the details in mw_bind. The argument mw_bind is an ibv_mw_bind struct, as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>. struct ibv_mw_bind { uint64_t wr_id; /* User defined WR ID */ unsigned int send_flags; /* Use ibv_send_flags */ struct ibv_mw_bind_info bind_info; /* MW bind information */ } struct ibv_mw_bind_info { struct ibv_mr *mr; /* The MR to bind the MW to */ uint64_t addr; /* The address the MW should start at */ uint64_t length; /* The length (in bytes) the MW should span */ unsigned int mw_access_flags; /* Access flags to the MW. Use ibv_access_flags */ }; The QP Transport Service Type must be either UC, RC or XRC_SEND for bind operations. The attribute send_flags describes the properties of the WR. It is either 0 or the bitwise OR of one or more of the following flags: IBV_SEND_FENCE Set the fence indicator. IBV_SEND_SIGNALED Set the completion notification indicator. Relevant only if QP was created with sq_sig_all=0 The mw_access_flags define the allowed access to the MW after the bind completes successfully. It is either 0 or the bitwise OR of one or more of the following flags: IBV_ACCESS_REMOTE_WRITE Enable Remote Write Access. Requires local write access to the MR. IBV_ACCESS_REMOTE_READ Enable Remote Read Access IBV_ACCESS_REMOTE_ATOMIC Enable Remote Atomic Operation Access (if supported). Requires local write access to the MR. IBV_ACCESS_ZERO_BASED If set, the address set on the 'remote_addr' field on the WR will be an offset from the MW's start address.
ibv_bind_mw() returns 0 on success, or the value of errno on failure (which indicates the failure reason). In case of a success, the R_key of the memory window after the bind is returned in the mw_bind->mw->rkey field.
The bind does not complete when the function return - it is merely posted to the QP. The user should keep a copy of the old R_key, and fix the mw structure if the subsequent CQE for the bind operation indicates a failure. The user may safely send the R_key using a send request on the same QP, (based on QP ordering rules: a send after a bind request on the same QP are always ordered), but must not transfer it to the remote in any other manner before reading a successful CQE. Note that for type 2 MW, one should directly post bind WR to the QP, using ibv_post_send.
