NAME

6       rdma_xclient - RDMA CM communication client test program
7

SYNOPSIS

9       rdma_xclient [-s server_address] [-p server_port] [-c comm_type]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Uses synchronous librdmam calls to establish an RDMA connection between
13       two nodes.  This example is intended to provide a  very  simple  coding
14       example of how to use RDMA.
15

OPTIONS

17       -s server_address
18              Specifies the address of the system that the rdma_server is run‐
19              ning on.  By default, the client will attempt to connect to  the
20              server using 127.0.0.1.
21
22       -p server_port
23              Specifies  the  port  number  that  the  server  listens on.  By
24              default the server listens on port 7471.
25
26       -c communication type
27              Specifies the type of communication established with the  server
28              program.   'r'  results  in  using  a reliable-connected QP (the
29              default).  'x' uses extended reliable-connected XRC QPs.
30

NOTES

32       Basic usage is to start rdma_xserver, then connect to the server  using
33       the rdma_client program.
34
35       Because  this  test maps RDMA resources to userspace, users must ensure
36       that they have available system resources  and  permissions.   See  the
37       libibverbs README file for additional details.
