Hi,

I am looking for the IB equivalent of the 're-transmission timeout' we
have in ethernet. I was going through the QP attributes and came across
this field in 'struct ibv_qp_attr'

uint8_t timeout; /* Local ack timeout for primary path (valid only for RC QPs)*/

I believe that this is the period of time (in seconds) that the IB HCA
will wait for the ACK for a packet it sent out before re-transmitting? I
was looking as to whether this field can be modified when creating a QP
using RDMA_CM.

Thanks in advance,

Hari.
