+.SH "NAME"
+ibv_post_send \- post a list of work requests (WRs) to a send queue

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.B ibv_post_send()
+posts the linked list of work requests (WRs) starting with
+.I wr
+to the send queue of the queue pair
+.I qp\fR.
+It stops processing WRs from this list at the first failure (that can
+be detected immediately while requests are being posted), and returns
+this failing WR through
+.I bad_wr\fR.
+.PP
+The argument
+.I wr
+is an ibv_send_wr struct, as defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.

+.PP
+The attribute send_flags describes the properties of the \s-1WR\s0. It is either 0 or the bitwise \s-1OR\s0 of one or more of the following flags:
+.PP
+.TP
+.B IBV_SEND_FENCE \fR Set the fence indicator. Valid only for QPs with Transport Service Type \fBIBV_QPT_RC
+.TP
+.B IBV_SEND_SIGNALED \fR Set the completion notification indicator. Relevant only if QP was created with sq_sig_all=0
+.TP
+.B IBV_SEND_SOLICITED \fR Set the solicited event indicator. Valid only for Send and RDMA Write with immediate
+.TP
+.B IBV_SEND_INLINE \fR Send data in given gather list as inline data
+in a send WQE. Valid only for Send and RDMA Write. The L_Key will not be checked.
+.TP
+.B IBV_SEND_IP_CSUM \fR Offload the IPv4 and TCP/UDP checksum calculation.
+Valid only when \fBdevice_cap_flags\fR in device_attr indicates current QP is
+supported by checksum offload.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+.B ibv_post_send()
+returns 0 on success, or the value of errno on failure (which indicates the failure reason).
+.SH "NOTES"
+The user should not alter or destroy AHs associated with WRs until
+request is fully executed and a work completion has been retrieved
+from the corresponding completion queue (CQ) to avoid unexpected
+behavior.
+.PP
+The buffers used by a WR can only be safely reused after WR the
+request is fully executed and a work completion has been retrieved
+from the corresponding completion queue (CQ). However, if the
+IBV_SEND_INLINE flag was set, the buffer can be reused immediately
+after the call returns.
