NAME

ibv_query_gid_ex - Query an InfiniBand port's GID table entry  

SYNOPSIS


#include <infiniband/verbs.h>

int ibv_query_gid_ex(struct ibv_context *context,
                     uint32_t port_num,
                     uint32_t gid_index,
                     struct ibv_gid_entry *entry,
                     uint32_t flags);

 

DESCRIPTION

ibv_query_gid_ex() returns the GID entry at entry for gid_index of port port_num for device context context.  

ARGUMENTS

context
The context of the device to query.
port_num
The number of port to query its GID table.
gid_index
The index of the GID table entry to query.
## entry Argument
An ibv_gid_entry struct, as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.

struct ibv_gid_entry {
    union ibv_gid gid;
    uint32_t gid_index;
    uint32_t port_num;
    uint32_t gid_type;
    uint32_t ndev_ifindex;
};

gid


    The GID entry.

gid_index


    The GID table index of this entry.

port_num


    The port number that this GID belongs to.

gid_type


    enum ibv_gid_type, can be one of IBV_GID_TYPE_IB, IBV_GID_TYPE_ROCE_V1 or IBV_GID_TYPE_ROCE_V2.

ndev_ifindex


    The interface index of the net device associated with this GID.
    It is 0 if there is no net device associated with it.

flags
Extra fields to query post ndev_ifindex, for now must be 0.
 

RETURN VALUE

ibv_query_gid_ex() returns 0 on success or errno value on error.  

ERRORS

ENODATA
gid_index is within the GID table size of port port_num but there is no data in this index.
