.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBrpma_send\fP() initiates the send operation which transfers a message from the local memory to
other side of the connection. To send a 0 byte message, set src to NULL and both offset and len
to 0.
.PP
The attribute flags set the completion notification indicator:
.IP \(bu 3
RPMA_F_COMPLETION_ON_ERROR - generate the completion on error
.IP \(bu 3
RPMA_F_COMPLETION_ALWAYS - generate the completion regardless of result of the operation.
.PP
op_context is returned in the wr_id field of the completion (struct ibv_wc).
.SH RETURN VALUE
The \fBrpma_send\fP() function returns 0 on success or a negative error code on failure.
.SH ERRORS
\fBrpma_send\fP() can fail with the following errors:
.IP \(bu 3
RPMA_E_INVAL - conn == NULL || flags == 0
.IP \(bu 3
RPMA_E_INVAL - src == NULL && (offset != 0 || len != 0)
.IP \(bu 3
RPMA_E_PROVIDER - \fBibv_post_send\fP(3) failed
