+.SH NAME
+rdma_join_multicast \- Joins a multicast group.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B "#include <rdma/rdma_cma.h>"
+.P
+.B "int" rdma_join_multicast
+.BI "(struct rdma_cm_id *" id ","
+.BI "struct sockaddr *" addr ","
+.BI "void *" context ");"
+.SH ARGUMENTS
+.IP "id" 12
+Communication identifier associated with the request.
+.IP "addr" 12
+Multicast address identifying the group to join.
+.IP "context" 12
+User-defined context associated with the join request.
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+Joins a multicast group and attaches an associated QP to the group.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Returns 0 on success, or -1 on error. If an error occurs, errno will be
+set to indicate the failure reason.
+.SH "NOTES"
+Before joining a multicast group, the rdma_cm_id must be bound to
+an RDMA device by calling rdma_bind_addr or rdma_resolve_addr. Use of
+rdma_resolve_addr requires the local routing tables to resolve the
+multicast address to an RDMA device, unless a specific source address
+is provided. The user must call rdma_leave_multicast to leave the
+multicast group and release any multicast resources. After the join
+operation completes, if a QP is associated with the rdma_cm_id,
+it is automatically attached to the multicast group when the multicast
+event is retrieved by the user. Otherwise, the user is responsible
+for calling ibv_attach_mcast to bind the QP to the multicast group.
+The join context is returned to the user through the private_data
+field in the rdma_cm_event.
