RDMA/cma: Add ability to specify type of service
Provide support to specify a type of service for a communication identifier. A new function call is used when dealing with IPv4 addresses. For IPv6 addresses, the ToS is specified through the traffic class field in the sockaddr_in6 structure. Signed-off-by: Sean Hefty <sean.hefty@intel.com> [ The comments Eitan Zahavi and myself have made over the v1 post at <http://lists.openfabrics.org/pipermail/general/2007-August/039247.html> were fully addressed. ] Reviewed-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
