[openib-general] How to increase the waiting period/timeout for the completion of an RDMA operation?

[Bub Thomas]

Oops,
I forgot to mention that the user paramter that fills this
local_ack_timeout is called packet_life_time out of the
ib_sa_path_record handed into the ib_cm_send_req.

Maybe someone can put this into the upcoming man pages, if not already
done.
