Book: Linux Kernel Networking – Implementation and Theory
The Linux kernel networking stack is dynamic and growing steadily in a
fast-paced progress; during the last years, there were a lot of
changes and updates. Many features were added and a lot of development
was done. However, for almost a decade, there was no new book about it.
Furthermore, many networking subsystems are not well documented or almost not documented at all.
Very soon, a new book will be published: Linux Kernel Networking: Implementation and Theory
I had the honor to write a chapter in this book: chapter 13 "InfiniBand". This chapter describes RDMA and explain how to use it in the Linux kernel.
This book is now available at Amazon

Hi Dotan,
I have a very fundamental doubt.in the ，there is "ibv_open_device" API，i want to know where the API is implemented，i find the linux kernel don't have realization of API of "ibv_open_device".
thank you ver much.
Hi.
ibv_open_device() is implemented in libibvers,
it opens a specific device and calls alloc_context() in the low-level driver library of the device that you asked to open.
Thanks
Dotan
