OK, here's some feedback on the documentation (man pages)

1. for rdma_disconnect - mention that

- it applies only to connected service
- the QP is moved to the error state and following that all the posted 
work requests will be flushed to the completion queue.
- the disconnected event would be generated in both sides of the connection

2. for rdma_join_multicast
- mention that as with unicast, if source address is provided to 
rdma_resolve_addr then the routing table need not be set to route this 
group to an ipoib device

- mention that the attach operation is done once the join SA query join 
is finished

- point from this page to the page of rdma_get_cm_event

3. librdmacm return codes

I understand its either zero (success) or unari-minus-some-errno-value, 
is it correct? if yes, can you document that at the main page? down the 
road, it can be nice to document the return values/reasons for each API 
entry, but I guess this might not fit into the timeline of OFED 1.3?!

Or.
