NAME
rdma_bind_addr - Bind an RDMA identifier to a source address.
SYNOPSIS
"#include <rdma/rdma_cma.h>"

"int" rdma_bind_addr "(struct rdma_cm_id *" id "," "struct sockaddr *" addr ");"

ARGUMENTS
"id" 12
RDMA identifier.
"addr" 12
Local address information. Wildcard values are permitted.
"DESCRIPTION"
Associates a source address with an rdma_cm_id. The address may be wildcarded. If binding to a specific local address, the rdma_cm_id will also be bound to a local RDMA device.
"RETURN VALUE"
Returns 0 on success, or -1 on error. If an error occurs, errno will be set to indicate the failure reason.
"NOTES"
Typically, this routine is called before calling rdma_listen to bind to a specific port number, but it may also be called on the active side of a connection before calling rdma_resolve_addr to bind to a specific address.

If used to bind to port 0, the rdma_cm will select an available port, which can be retrieved with rdma_get_src_port(3).
