"Disconnects a connection and transitions any associated QP to the error state,
which will flush any posted work requests to the completion queue."

>From rdma_join_multicast.3:

"Before joining a multicast group, the rdma_cm_id must be bound to
an RDMA device by calling rdma_bind_addr or rdma_resolve_addr.  Use of
rdma_resolve_addr requires the local routing tables to resolve the
multicast address to an RDMA device, unless a specific source address
is provided."
