Flows can be created on UD and RAW_PACKET QP types. Attempts to provide
other QP types as an input causes to various unpredictable failures.
The reason is that in order to support all various types (e.g. XRC), we
are supposed to use real_qp handle and not qp handle and expect to
driver/FW to fail such (XRC) flows. The simpler and safer variant is to
ban all QP types except UD and RAW_PACKET, instead of relying on
driver/FW.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
