+.SH NAME
+rdma_reg_read \- register data buffer(s) for remote RDMA read access.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B "#include <rdma/rdma_verbs.h>"
+.P
+.B "struct ibv_mr *" rdma_reg_read
+.BI "(struct rdma_cm_id *" id ","
+.BI "void *" addr ","
+.BI "size_t " length ");"
+.SH ARGUMENTS
+.IP "id" 12
+A reference to a communication identifier where the message buffer(s)
+will be used.
+.IP "addr" 12
+The address of the memory buffer(s) to register.
+.IP "length" 12
+The total length of the memory to register.
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+Registers a memory buffer that will be accessed by a remote RDMA read
+operation. Memory buffers registered using rdma_reg_read may be
+targeted in an RDMA read request, allowing the buffer to be
+specified on the remote side of an RDMA connection as the remote_addr
+of rdma_post_read, or similar call.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Returns a reference to the registered memory region on success, or NULL on
+error. If an error occurs, errno will be set to indicate the failure reason.
+.SH "NOTES"
+rdma_reg_read is used to register a data buffer that will be the
+target of an RDMA read operation on a queue pair associated with
+an rdma_cm_id. The memory buffer is registered with the proteection
+domain associated with the idenfier. The start of the data buffer
+is specified through the addr parameter, and the total size of the buffer
+is given by length.
+.P
+All data buffers should be registered before being posted as a work request.
+Users must deregister all registered memory by calling rdma_dereg_mr.
