Yes, I agree on that. Infact the verbs layer will return ENOSYS for
mthca driver. But I was assuming that any other driver by a different
hardware vendor can support this call (mthca over time could support
this call too ?).

Actually, I haven't really implemented the "dynamically" part, where you
resize the CQ during operation. The spec said that when you create a QP,
it can be larger than what you specified. If so, I see good value in
increasing the size of the associated CQ, if it is supported by the
driver.
