Package Name:
ibacm-devel
Summary:
Headers file needed when building apps to talk directly to ib_acm
Description:
Most applications do not need to know how to talk directly to the ib_acm daemon, but it does have a socket that it listens on, and it has a specific protocol for incoming/outgoing data. So if you wish to build the ability to communicate directly with ib_acm into your own application, the protocol used to communicate with it, and the data structures involved, are in this header file. Please note that this is an unsupported method of using this daemon. The only supported means of using this is via librdmacm. As such, even though this header file is provided, no further documentation is available. One must read the source if they wish to make use of this header file.
