Hi all,

I have a question about a completion for a send with immediate data. The IB 
spec (1.2.1) only mentions that the WC's immediate data be present at the 
receiver. It is silent on the value on the sender at completion. It does say 
that it is only valid if the WC's immediate data indicator is set.

When I test using a 2.6.38 kernel with the kernel.org libibverbs git tree, I 
see a send completion's wc_flags set with IBV_WC_WITH_IMM yet the imm_data is 
not what I passed in. Since the spec is silent on setting imm_data on the 
sender, I assume that I should not rely on looking at the imm_data on a send 
completion.

Given that, should IBV_WC_WITH_IMM ever be set on the sender?

Thanks,

Scott
