a queue pair (QP)

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.B ibv_modify_qp_rate_limit()
+modifies the send rate limiting packet pacing attributes of QP
+.I qp
+with the attributes in
+.I attr\fR.
+The argument \fIattr\fR is an ibv_qp_rate_limit_attr struct, as
defined in <infiniband/verbs.h>.
+.PP
+The
+.I rate_limit
+defines the MAX send rate this QP will send at as long as the link in
not blocked and there are work requestes in send queue.
+.PP
+Finer control for shaping the rate limit of a QP is achieved by defining the
+.I max_burst_sz\fR,
+single burst max bytes size and the
+.I typical_pkt_sz\fR,
+typical packet bytes size. These allow the device to adjust the
inter-burst gap delay required to correctly shape the scheduling of
sends to the wire in order to reach for requested application
requirements.
+.PP
+Setting a value of 0 for
+.I max_burst_sz
+or
+.I typical_pkt_sz
+will use the devices defaults.
+.I typical_pkt_sz
+will default to the port's MTU value.

Allow user space verbs application finer grain control of QP send rate limit by setting a max_burst_sz [bytes] and typical_pkt_sz [bytes]. Expose new ibv_modify_qp_rate_limit() user space verbs API with dedicated attribute struct. Fail call if requested configuration is not supported on QP or device. The standard kernel modify qp command will be used to pass the new values to be modified by the driver.
