NAME top

       mckey - RDMA CM multicast setup and simple data transfer test.

SYNOPSIS top

       mckey -m multicast_address [-s] [-b bind_address] [-c connections]
                 [-C message_count] [-S message_size] [-p port_space]
       mckey -m multicast_address -s [-b bind_address] [-c connections]
                 [-C message_count] [-S message_size] [-p port_space]
       mckey -M unmapped_multicast_address -b bind_address [-s] [-c connections]
                 [-C message_count] [-S message_size] [-p port_space]

DESCRIPTION top

       Establishes a set of RDMA multicast communication paths between nodes
       using the librdmacm, optionally transfers datagrams to receiving
       nodes, then tears down the communication.

OPTIONS top

       -m multicast_address
              IP multicast address to join.

       -M unmapped_multicast_address
              RDMA transport specific multicast address to join.

       -s     Send datagrams to the multicast group.

       -b bind_address
              The local network address to bind to.

       -c connections
              The number of QPs to join the multicast group.  (default 1)

       -C message_count
              The number of messages to transfer over each connection.
              (default 10)

       -S message_size
              The size of each message transferred, in bytes.  This value
              must be smaller than the MTU of the underlying RDMA transport,
              or an error will occur.  (default 100)

       -o     Join the multicast group as a send-only full-member. Otherwise
              the group is joined as a full-member.

       -p port_space
              The port space of the datagram communication.  May be either
              the RDMA UDP (0x0111) or IPoIB (0x0002) port space.  (default
              RDMA_PS_UDP)

NOTES top

       Basic usage is to start mckey -m multicast_address on a server
       system, then run mckey -m multicast_address -s on a client system.

       Unique Infiniband SA assigned multicast GIDs can be retrieved by
       invoking mckey with a zero MGID or IP address.  (Example, -M 0 or -m
       0.0.0.0).  The assigned address will be displayed to allow mckey
       clients to join the created group.

       Because this test maps RDMA resources to userspace, users must ensure
       that they have available system resources and permissions.  See the
       libibverbs README file for additional details.
