*conn_param , struct rdma_ucm_ece *ece );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• id — the connection identifier you're connecting. it's the main character of this whole operation 👑
• conn_param — connection information used for connected QPs. yes, QPs. queue pairs. we love them 💜
• ece — ECE parameters. that's it, that's the whole description, no notes 🙈
