NAME

       rdma_bind_addr - Bind an RDMA identifier to a source address.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <rdma/rdma_cma.h>

       int rdma_bind_addr (struct rdma_cm_id *id, struct sockaddr *addr);

ARGUMENTS

       id          RDMA identifier.

       addr        Local address information.  Wildcard values are permitted.

DESCRIPTION

       Associates a source address with an rdma_cm_id.  The address may be wildcarded.  If binding to a specific
       local address, the rdma_cm_id will also be bound to a local RDMA device.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns  0  on  success,  or  -1 on error.  If an error occurs, errno will be set to indicate the failure
       reason.

NOTES

       Typically, this routine is called before calling rdma_listen to bind to a specific port  number,  but  it
       may  also  be  called  on  the  active side of a connection before calling rdma_resolve_addr to bind to a
       specific address.

       If used to bind to port 0, the rdma_cm will select  an  available  port,  which  can  be  retrieved  with
       rdma_get_src_port(3).
