IBV_QUERY_GID_EX(3) Libibverbs Programmer’s Manual IBV_QUERY_GID_EX(3)

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

The context of the device to query.
The number of port to query its GID table.
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.
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

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