Dotan,
the ibv_rc_pingpong example works for me so I can exclude the
architecture.
I never got the libibcm example compiled.
Which is your example and which architecture x86 vs. x86_64 did you
compile it for?
Can you share your libibcm the example code? (if it is not the standard
that I can't get compiled)
Thomas

What is the problem that you see?
there are some examples that comes with the libibcm that can show you 
how to use the library.

there can be several reasons for your problem:
1) side A send a req when side B is not ready and there is a timeout
failure
2) only in side A the ib_ucm kernel module enabled
3) SM is not working (well)
4) host A cannot be reached to host B using IB
5) endianess issues?

i tried to use the libibcm and i don't have any problem (but i don't 
have any Voltaire switch, so i can't check your scenario).
