mlx5dv_query_device — Query device capabilities specific to mlx5

Synopsis

#include <infiniband/mlx5dv.h>

int mlx5dv_query_device(struct ibv_context *ctx_in,
                        struct mlx5dv_context *attrs_out);

Description

mlx5dv_query_device() Query HW device-specific information which is important for data-path, but isn't provided by ibv_query_device(3).

This function returns version, flags and compatibility mask. The version represents the format of the internal hardware structures that mlx5dv.h represents. Additions of new fields to the existed structures are handled by comp_mask field.
