OK, so no good way to determine this from uDAPL alone, its expected that
the provider will register/deregister with the file as needed.
Next question. is there a way to get the entire dat.conf entry from the
uDAPL API?
Example: Typical dat.conf entry might look something like:
OpenIB-cma u1.2 nonthreadsafe default /usr/local/lib64/libdaplcma.so
dapl.1.2 "ib0 0" ""
I can find the first field, in this example "OpenIB-cma", from the ia
attribute name but what if I wanted to correlate say the 6th field, "ib0
0", with the first field?
Thanks

Sorry. I was wrongly lumping port and HCA together.
2 HCA cards each with 2 ports but only one port on one card
is operational and by that I mean can be pinged or seen as
"UP" when you run ifconfig. But both are still listed in the dat.conf.

The DAT Registry allows for a provider to deregister itself, but
there are no guidelines as to when it should do so for indefinite
but non-permanent unavailabiilty. I have always presumed that Host
OS standards for temporarily unavailable devices should be applied.
