-.TH IBV_POST_SEND 3 2006-10-31 libibverbs "Libibverbs Programmer's Manual"
-.SH "NAME"
-ibv_post_send \- post a list of work requests (WRs) to a send queue

-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-.B ibv_post_send()
-posts the linked list of work requests (WRs) starting with
-.I wr
-to the send queue of the queue pair
-.I qp\fR.
-It stops processing WRs from this list at the first failure (that can
-be detected immediately while requests are being posted), and returns
-this failing WR through
-.I bad_wr\fR.
-.PP
-The argument
-.I wr
-is an ibv_send_wr struct, as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.

-.PP
-The attribute send_flags describes the properties of the \s-1WR\s0. It is either 0 or the bitwise \s-1OR\s0 of one or more of the following flags:
-.PP
-.TP
-.B IBV_SEND_FENCE \fR Set the fence indicator. Valid only for QPs with Transport Service Type \fBIBV_QPT_RC
-.TP
-.B IBV_SEND_SIGNALED \fR Set the completion notification indicator. Relevant only if QP was created with sq_sig_all=0
-.TP
-.B IBV_SEND_SOLICITED \fR Set the solicited event indicator. Valid only for Send and RDMA Write with immediate
-.TP
-.B IBV_SEND_INLINE \fR Send data in given gather list as inline data
-in a send WQE. Valid only for Send and RDMA Write. The L_Key will not be checked.
-.TP
-.B IBV_SEND_IP_CSUM \fR Offload the IPv4 and TCP/UDP checksum calculation.
-Valid only when \fBdevice_cap_flags\fR in device_attr indicates current QP is
-supported by checksum offload.
-.SH "RETURN VALUE"
-.B ibv_post_send()
-returns 0 on success, or the value of errno on failure (which indicates the failure reason).
-.SH "NOTES"
-The user should not alter or destroy AHs associated with WRs until
-request is fully executed and a work completion has been retrieved
-from the corresponding completion queue (CQ) to avoid unexpected
-behavior.
-.PP
-The buffers used by a WR can only be safely reused after WR the
-request is fully executed and a work completion has been retrieved
-from the corresponding completion queue (CQ). However, if the
-IBV_SEND_INLINE flag was set, the buffer can be reused immediately
-after the call returns.
