ibv_create_cq_ex — create a completion queue (CQ)
Synopsis
#include <infiniband/verbs.h> struct ibv_cq_ex *ibv_create_cq_ex(struct ibv_context *context, struct ibv_cq_init_attr_ex *cq_attr);
Description
ibv_create_cq_ex() creates a completion queue (CQ) for RDMA device context context. The argument cq_attr is a pointer to struct ibv_cq_init_attr_ex as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.
struct ibv_cq_init_attr_ex { int cqe; /* Minimum number of entries required for CQ */ void *cq_context; /* Consumer-supplied context returned for completion events */ struct ibv_comp_channel *channel; /* Completion channel where completion events will be queued. May be NULL if completion events will not be used. */ int comp_vector; /* Completion vector used to signal completion events. Must be >= 0 and < context->num_comp_vectors. */ uint64_t wc_flags; /* The wc_flags that should be returned in ibv_poll_cq_ex.

Polling an extended CQ
In order to poll an extended CQ efficiently, a user could use the following functions.
- Completion iterator functions
-
int ibv_start_poll(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq, struct ibv_poll_cq_attr *attr)
Start polling a batch of work completions. attr is given in order to make this function easily extensible in the future. This function either returns 0 on success or an error code otherwise. When no completions are available on the CQ, ENOENT is returned, but the CQ remains in a valid state. On success, querying the completion's attribute could be done using the query functions described below. If an error code is given, end_poll shouldn't be called.int ibv_next_poll(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq)
This function is called in order to get the next work completion. It has to be called after start_poll and before end_poll are called. This function either returns 0 on success or an error code otherwise. When no completions are available on the CQ, ENOENT is returned, but the CQ remains in a valid state. On success, querying the completion's attribute could be done using the query functions described below. If an error code is given, end_poll should still be called, indicating this is the end of the polled batch.void ibv_end_poll(struct ibv_cq_ex *cq)
This function indicates the end of polling batch of work completions. After calling this function, the user should start a new batch by calling start_poll. - Polling fields in the completion
-
Below members and functions are used in order to poll the current completion. The current completion is the completion which the iterator points to (start_poll and next_poll advances this iterator). Only fields that the user requested via wc_flags in ibv_create_cq_ex could be queried. In addition, some fields are only valid in certain opcodes and status codes.

Return Value
ibv_create_cq_ex() returns a pointer to the CQ, or NULL if the request fails.
Notes
ibv_create_cq_ex() may create a CQ with size greater than or equal to the requested size. Check the cqe attribute in the returned CQ for the actual size.
CQ should be destroyed with ibv_destroy_cq.
