The fd is exposed directly by walking ib_cm_id->device->fd.

Btw, to respond to you other email, converting from the ib_cm to the 
rdma_cm shouldn't be overly difficult.  You get fewer CM related events, 
QP transitions done for you, use of actual path records, and the ability 
to reference nodes using an IP address.  There are some example programs 
in the librdmacm/example directory if you want to take a quick look at 
what the code would look like.  The IB device is acquired dynamically 
though, so depending on how you allocate resources in your code, you may 
need some rework in this area.
