SYNOPSIS

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 ibv_query_device_ex_in‐
19       put structure, used for  future  extensions  The  argument  attr  is  a
20       pointer  to  an  ibv_device_attr_ex  struct,  as  defined  in  <infini‐
21       band/verbs.h>.

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

RETURN VALUE

145       ibv_query_device_ex()  returns  0  on success, or the value of errno on
146       failure (which indicates the failure reason).
147

NOTES

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