IBV_OPEN_DEVICE(3)					  Libibverbs Programmer's Manual					IBV_OPEN_DEVICE(3)

NAME
ibv_open_device, ibv_close_device - open and close an RDMA device context
SYNOPSIS
#include <infiniband/verbs.h> struct ibv_context *ibv_open_device(struct ibv_device *device); int ibv_close_device(struct ibv_context *context);
DESCRIPTION
ibv_open_device() opens the device device and creates a context for further use. ibv_close_device() closes the device context context.
RETURN VALUE
ibv_open_device() returns a pointer to the allocated device context, or NULL if the request fails. ibv_close_device() returns 0 on success, -1 on failure.
NOTES
ibv_close_device() does not release all the resources allocated using context context. To avoid resource leaks, the user should release all associated resources before closing a context.
