11
12       int ibv_query_device_ex(struct ibv_context *context,
13                               struct ibv_query_device_ex_input *input,

DESCRIPTION

17       ibv_query_device_ex() returns the attributes of the device with context
18       context.     The    argument    input    is    a    pointer    to    an
19       ibv_query_device_ex_input structure, used  for  future  extensions  The
20       argument  attr is a pointer to an ibv_device_attr_ex struct, as defined
21       in <infiniband/verbs.h>.

119       Extended device capability flags (device_cap_flags_ex):
120
121       IBV_DEVICE_PCI_WRITE_END_PADDING
122
123              Indicates the device has support for padding  PCI  writes  to  a
124              full cache line.
125
126              Padding  packets to full cache lines reduces the amount of traf‐
127              fic required at the memory controller at the expense of creating
128              more traffic on the PCI-E port.
129
130              Workloads  that  have  a high CPU memory load and low PCI-E uti‐
131              lization will benefit from this feature,  while  workloads  that
132              have a high PCI-E utilization and small packets will be harmed.
133
134              For  instance,  with a 128 byte cache line size, the transfer of
135              any packets less than 128 bytes will require a full 128 transfer
136              on PCI, potentially doubling the required PCI-E bandwidth.
137
138              This  feature  can  be  enabled  on  a  QP  or  WQ basis via the
139              IBV_QP_CREATE_PCI_WRITE_END_PADDING                           or
140              IBV_WQ_FLAGS_PCI_WRITE_END_PADDING flags.

RETURN VALUE

144       ibv_query_device_ex()  returns  0  on success, or the value of errno on
145       failure (which indicates the failure reason).
146

NOTES

148       The maximum values returned by this function are the  upper  limits  of
149       supported  resources by the device.  However, it may not be possible to
150       use these maximum values, since the actual number of any resource  that
151       can  be created may be limited by the machine configuration, the amount
152       of host memory, user permissions, and the amount of  resources  already
153       in use by other users/processes.
