Overview
What It Does
Doca Rdma packages a focused communication workflow for an AI agent. Use this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA RDMA programming on a BlueField DPU, ConnectX NIC, or DOCA host — bringing up an RDMA context on a doca_dev, picking a connection method (RDMA CM, bridge/OOB, or gRPC exchange of doca_rdma_export()), enabling one of the eleven task types (Send/Receive/Send-Imm, Read/Write/Write-Imm, Atomic CmpSwap/FetchAdd, Get/Set/Add Remote Sync Event), setting matching mmap + RDMA permissions, sizing queues and connections, querying doca_rdma_cap_*, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* from an RDMA call. Trigger even when the user does not mention "DOCA RDMA" — typical implicit phrasings include "one-sided read returns permission denied", "completions never arrive after submit", "connection callback never fires", "how do I do atomic compare-and-swap over RoCE", or "send queue hits DOCA_ERROR_FULL under burst". Refuse and route elsewhere for general RDMA / ibverbs theory (queue pairs, MRs, RoCE vs IB), installing DOCA itself, or non-RDMA DOCA libraries. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
