Yes, the verb is : ibv_post_send, you should use the RDMA Write opcode.
(it add a job to the work queue)

In the rdcmacm + libibverbs + performance which come as part of OFED 
there are code examples
that connect the QPs using the rdmacm and post RDMA Write, maybe there 
isn't a single example
that does all of it, but combination of two must do it....

What i meant was that taking an example from the rdmacm and changing it 
to post RDMA Write
instead of SENDs should not be that difficult ...
