uDAPL was defined by an industry consortium:

http://www.datcollaborative.org/

The website has API documentation. (Disclaimer: I'm the maintainer of 
the uDAPL open source project)

VAPI is an older verbs API specified by Mellanox. The current 
OpenFabrics (aka OpenIB) project does not have a VAPI userspace 
library. 

Another options is the low level OpenFabrics verbs API. I don't know 
of any documentation for this.
