.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.B ibv_open_xrc_domain()
open an XRC domain for the InfiniBand device context 
.I context
or return a reference to an opened one\fR.
.I fd
is the file descriptor to be associated with the XRC domain.
The argument
.I oflag
describes the desired file creation attributes;  it  is either 0 or the bitwise OR of one or more of the following flags:
.PP
.TP
.B O_CREAT
If a domain belonging to device named by context is already associated with the inode, this flag has
no effect, except as noted under
.BR O_EXCL
below. Otherwise, a new XRC domain is created and is associated with inode specified by
.IR fd\fR.
.TP
.B O_EXCL
If 
.BR O_EXCL
and
.BR O_CREAT
are set, open will fail if a domain associated with the inode exists.
The check for the existence of the domain and creation
of the domain if it does not exist is atomic with respect to other
processes executing open with
.IR fd
naming the same inode.
.PP
If 
.I fd
equals -1, no inode is is associated with the domain, and the only valid value for
.I oflag
is
.B O_CREAT\fR.
.PP
.B ibv_close_xrc_domain()
closes the XRC domain
.I d\fR.
If this is the last reference, the XRC domain will be destroyed.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.B ibv_open_xrc_domain()
returns a pointer to an opened XRC, or NULL if the request fails.
.PP
.B ibv_close_xrc_domain()
returns 0 on success, or the value of errno on failure (which indicates the failure reason).
.SH "NOTES"
Not all devices support XRC. To check if a device supports it, check if the
.B IBV_DEVICE_XRC
bit is set in the device capabilities flags.
.PP
.B ibv_close_xrc_domain()
may fail if any QP or SRQ are still associated with the XRC domain being closed.
