UMAD_INIT(3)

NAME

umad_init, umad_done - perform library initialization and finalization

SYNOPSIS

    #include <infiniband/umad.h>
    int umad_init(void);
    int umad_done(void);

DESCRIPTION

umad_init() and umad_done() do nothing.

RETURN VALUE

Always 0.

COMPATIBILITY

Versions prior to release 18 of the library require umad_init() to be called prior to using any other library functions. Old versions could return a failure code of -1 from umad_init().

For compatibility, applications should continue to call umad_init(), and check the return code, prior to calling other umad_ functions. If umad_init() returns an error, then no further use of the umad library should be attempted.
