NAME
       ibv_open_qp - open a shareable queue pair (QP)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <infiniband/verbs.h>

       struct ibv_qp *ibv_open_qp(struct ibv_context *context,
				  struct ibv_qp_open_attr *qp_open_attr);

DESCRIPTION
       ibv_open_qp()  opens  an  existing  queue  pair	(QP) associated with the extended protection domain xrcd.  The argument qp_open_attr is an
       ibv_qp_open_attr struct, as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.

       struct ibv_qp_open_attr {
	       uint32_t 	 comp_mask;  /* Identifies valid fields */
	       uint32_t 	 qp_num;     /* QP number */
	       struct		 *ibv_xrcd;  /* XRC domain */
	       void		*qp_context; /* User defined opaque value */
	       enum ibv_qp_type  qp_type;    /* QP transport service type */

       ibv_destroy_qp() closes the opened QP and destroys the underlying QP if it has no other references.  qp.

RETURN VALUE
       ibv_open_qp() returns a pointer to the opened QP, or NULL if the request fails.	Check the QP number (qp_num) in the returned QP.

NOTES
       ibv_open_qp() will fail if a it is asked to open a QP that does not exist within the xrcd with the specified qp_num and qp_type.
