The mask is used as a hint to the low-level driver about which attributes the consumer cares about. The driver may fill in more fields, but it can use the mask to optimize some calls, if filling in a particular field is expensive and that field is not requested by the consumer. I guess we should update the documentation to reflect this. - R. _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
