RDMA_SERVER(1)

💖 RDMA_SERVER(1) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the librdmacm manual, page one, and it's a cute lil demo program, no cap ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

rdma_server — a simple RDMA CM connection and ping-pong test. that's literally it. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

rdma_server [-p port]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So here's the tea: rdma_server uses synchronous librdmam calls to establish an RDMA connection between two nodes. 🫶

And like… the whole point of it? It's meant to be a very simple coding example of how to use RDMA. it's giving tutorial energy. it's giving "read me and learn". it's not trying to be deep, it's trying to be clear. 💅

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -s server_address — specifies the address that rdma_server listens on. by default the server listens on any address (0.0.0.0). lowkey the chillest default ever, it'll just accept vibes from anywhere 🌈
• -p port — changes the port number that the server listens on. by default the server listens on port 7471. iconic number honestly 🔥

📝 NOTES 📝

Basic usage is so simple bestie: start rdma_server, then connect to the server using the rdma_client program. that's the whole flow. periodt. ✨

⚠️ important!! because this test maps RDMA resources to userspace, users must make sure they have available system resources and permissions. check the libibverbs README file for additional details — fr fr, go read it, don't just yolo it 😭
