##  NAME  top

    
    
           rdma_server - simple RDMA CM connection and ping-pong test.
    

##  SYNOPSIS  top

    
    
           _rdma_server_ [-p port]
    

##  DESCRIPTION  top

    
    
           Uses synchronous librdmam calls to establish an RDMA connections
           between two nodes.  This example is intended to provide a very
           simple coding example of how to use RDMA.
    

##  OPTIONS  top

    
    
           -s server_address
                  Specifies the address that the rdma_server listens on.  By
                  default the server listens on any address(0.0.0.0).
    
           -p port
                  Changes the port number that the server listens on.  By
                  default the server listens on port 7471.
    

##  NOTES  top

    
    
           Basic usage is to start rdma_server, then connect to the server
           using the rdma_client program.
    
           Because this test maps RDMA resources to userspace, users must
           ensure that they have available system resources and permissions.
           See the libibverbs README file for additional details.
