ibv_open_device, ibv_close_device - open and close an RDMA device context

 #include <infiniband/verbs.h>  "struct ibv_context *ibv_open_device(struct ibv_device " "*device" ");  "int ibv_close_device(struct ibv_context " "*context" "); 

ibv_open_device() opens the device device and creates a context for further use.

ibv_close_device() closes the device context context.

ibv_open_device() returns a pointer to the allocated device context, or NULL if the request fails.

ibv_close_device() returns 0 on success, -1 on failure.

ibv_close_device() does not release all the resources allocated using context context. To avoid resource leaks, the user should release all associated resources before closing a context. ibv_get_device_list (3), ibv_query_device (3), ibv_query_port (3), ibv_query_gid (3), ibv_query_pkey (3)
