The Infiniband stack was installed from the official Ubuntu repository

When I start the ucmatose server with the address format "gid", the
tool fails binding with the error "No such device"
Here is an example of the output:
---
$ cat /sys/class/infiniband/roceP1p1s0f1/ports/1/gids/0
fe80:0000:0000:0000:bace:f6ff:fe2d:1707
$ ucmatose -b fe80:0000:0000:0000:bace:f6ff:fe2d:1707 -P ib -f gid
cmatose: starting server
cmatose: bind address failed: No such device
test complete
return status -1

Does rdmacm support connection establishment using GID with RoCE? Or
Is it a known limitation for RoCE?
FYI, the same experiment without RoCE (Link layer: Infiniband) works perfectly.
Thanks for your help and your feedback.
