General
-------

infiniband-diags is a set of utilities designed to help configure, debug, and
maintain infiniband fabrics.  Many tools and utilities are provided.  Some with
similar functionality.

Here is a list of the utilties included in infiniband-diags

   Basic fabric conectivity
           See: ibnetdiscover, iblinkinfo

   Node information
           See: ibnodes, ibswitches, ibhosts, ibrouters

   Port information
           See: ibportstate, ibaddr

   Switch Forwarding Table info
           See: ibtracert, ibroute, dump_lfts, dump_mfts, check_lft_balance, ibfindnodesusing

   Peformance counters
           See: ibqueryerrors, perfquery

   Local HCA info
           See: ibstat, ibstatus

   Connectivity check
           See: ibping, ibsysstat

   Low level query tools
           See: smpquery, smpdump, saquery, sminfo

In addition to the utilities provided a sub-library libibnetdisc is provided to
scan an entire IB fabric and return data structures representing it.  The
interface to this library is _not_ guaranteed to be stable (though we try.)
