LIBDAT(3LIB)LIBDAT(3LIB)NAMElibdat - direct access transport library
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -ldat [ library... ]
#include <dat/udat.h>
DESCRIPTION
The libdat library provides an application with the User Direct Access
Programming Library (uDAPL) 1.2 functions to access the underlying
RDMA-able interconnects. Different uDAPL service providers listed in
the DAT static registry dat.conf(4) can be registered during runtime
with the DAT library. After an application opens an interface adapter
belonging to a particular service provider, all function calls will be
redirected to that service provider's library.
INTERFACES
The shared object libdat.so.1 provides the public interfaces defined
below for applications. See Intro(3) for additional information on
shared object interfaces.

The libdat library supports service providers written according to the
uDAPL 1.2 specification. A service provider library has to be a dynamic
loadable shared object with two public entry points exported:
dat_provider_init dat_provider_fini
In terms of installation, the service provider package should include a
service_provider.conf(4) file. The datadm(1M) administrative configura‐
tion program should be used to add and remove service provider's
entries in the system-wide dat.conf(4).
