While the device is detected by ibv_devices and rping works, I can't get ibv_rc_pingpong working (and as far as I understand, RC should be supported by the iWARP driver) rping works: server$ rping -s -a 10.30.10.211 -v server ping data: rdma-ping-0: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqr server ping data: rdma-ping-1: BCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrs server DISCONNECT EVENT... wait for RDMA_READ_ADV state 10 client$ rping -c -a 10.30.10.211 -C 2 -v (output omitted) But ibv_rc_pingpong doesn't server$ ibv_rc_pingpong -d iwp____ local address: LID 0x0000, QPN 0x000001, PSN 0xb8aafc, GID :: Failed to modify QP to RTS Couldn't connect to remote QP client$ ibv_rc_pingpong -d iwp____ 10.30.10.211 local address: LID 0x0000, QPN 0x000001, PSN 0x71abc5, GID :: client read/write: Protocol not supported Couldn't read/write remote address dmesg says: [ 93.957733] iwpm_register_pid: Unable to send a nlmsg (client = 2) And OpenMPI/UCX doesn't want to use the transport either: [1566564168.338103] [host:23059:0] select.c:410 UCX ERROR no active messages transport to <no debug data>: mm/posix - Destination is unreachable, mm/sysv - Destination is unreachable, self/self - Destination is unreachable, rdmacm/sockaddr - no am bcopy, cma/cma - no am bcopy Is this a bug or a limitation of siw?
