[libfabric-users] Libfabric : Facing issues with FI_VERSION(1, 5) in fi_getinfo()

[Hefty, Sean]

Copying the verbs maintainers and libfabric-users list.  I think the most common problem is selecting IP addresses that are associated with IPoIB devices.

Btw, you may want to look at the fi_tostr() function for printing libfabric structures, bitmasks, etc.

Subject: Libfabric : Facing issues with FI_VERSION(1, 5) in fi_getinfo()

Hi Sean,

I am trying to work with Libfabric in our cluster but currently facing some issues. While checking the ‘fi_info’ with the provider as ‘verbs’, I am getting verbs provider for the current node.

I have installed ‘v1.5.3’ in our cluster and trying to write some code using Libfabric. But I am getting only ‘sockets’ as provider when giving FI_VERSION(1, 5) in fi_getinfo() function. I want to use verbs provider but the fi_getinfo is not returning it. Please find the images below for more details-

If I give FI_VERSION(1, 4), I am getting verbs also as provider.

Can you please clarify if I am doing anything wrong. It would be really great if you please mention how to resolve this issue.
