libibverbs: Add support for XRC QPs
Hi Sean,
Just wonder, the Infiniband Annex for XRC uses the terms "XRC INI QP" and "XRC TGT QP" and the kernel include file "include/rdma/ib_verbs.h" also defines "IB_QPT_XRC_INI" and "IB_QPT_XRC_TGT" so why to use in "include/infiniband/verbs.h" other names i.e. "IBV_QPT_XRC_SEND" and "IBV_QPT_XRC_RECV"? I agree that send and receive are more intuitive but I think that consistency is more important.
Best regards,
S.P.

A user space API should strive to be intuitive to use and save developers from having to read specs.
So, I'll disagree here.
