Sean,

Assuming this solution (a create-qp-extended verb that gets also 
creation flags) would be the one implemented at libibverbs, are you fine 
with applying the same approach to librdmacm that is adding a matching 
call eg rdma-create-qp-extended that just calls the new verb?

Also when are you planning the next release of librdmacm?
