+---
+
+# NAME
+
+rdma_get_remote_ece - Get remote ECE paraemters as received from the peer.
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+```c
+#include <rdma/rdma_cma.h>
+
+int rdma_get_remote_ece(struct rdma_cm_id *id, struct ibv_ece *ece);
+```
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+**rdma_get_remote_ece()** get ECE parameters as were received from the communication peer.
+
+This function is suppose to be used by the users of external QPs. The call needs
+to be performed before replying to the peer and needed to allow for the passive
+side to know ECE options of other side.
+
+Being used by external QP and RDMA_CM doesn't manage that QP, the peer needs
+to call to libibverbs API by itself.
+
+Usual flow for the passive side will be:
+
+ * ibv_create_qp() <- create data QP.
+ * ece = rdma_get_remote_ece() <- get ECE options from remote peer
+ * ibv_set_ece(ece) <- set local ECE options with data received from the peer.
+ * ibv_modify_qp() <- enable data QP.
+ * rdma_set_local_ece(ece) <- set desired ECE options after respective
+				libibverbs provider masked unsupported options.
+ * rdma_accept()/rdma_establish()/rdma_reject_ece()
+
+# ARGUMENTS
+
+*id
+:    RDMA communication identifier.
+
+*ece
+:    ECE struct to be filled.
+
+# RETURN VALUE
+
+**rdma_get_remote_ece()** returns 0 on success, or -1 on error.  If an error occurs, errno will be set to indicate the failure reason.

+rdma_set_local_ece - Set local ECE paraemters to be used for REQ/REP communication.

+**rdma_set_local_ece()** set local ECE parameters.
