NAME

ibcm - Solaris InfiniBand Communication Manager

DESCRIPTION

The Solaris InfiniBand Communication Manager (IBCM) is a Solaris
kernel misc module that adheres to the InfiniBand Architecture
Specification, Volume 1: Release 1.1 for InfiniBand Communication
Management Class.


IBCM provides a transport layer abstraction to IB clients to set up
reliable connected channels along with service, multicast, and path
lookup-related functionality. IBCM implements the CM protocol as per
the InfiniBand Architecture Specification, Volume 1: Release 1.1 and
utilizes the InfiniBand Management Framework module for all IB
management-related functionality and the InfiniBand Transport Layer
(see ibtl(4D)) for all IB Verbs-related functionality.
