59  *
60  * The LNet API is memory-oriented, so LNet must be able to address not only
61  * end-points but also memory region within a process address space.
62  * An ::lnet_nid_t addresses an end-point. An ::lnet_pid_t identifies a process
63  * in a node. A portal represents an opening in the address space of a
64  * process. Match bits is criteria to identify a region of memory inside a
65  * portal, and offset specifies an offset within the memory region.
66  *
67  * LNet creates a table of portals for each process during initialization.
68  * This table has MAX_PORTALS entries and its size can't be dynamically
69  * changed. A portal stays empty until the owning process starts to add
70  * memory regions to it. A portal is sometimes called an index because
71  * it's an entry in the portals table of a process.

140  * into or out of a MD. They can also be used to hold acknowledgments for

149  * holds the information about with an event.
150  *
151  * There are five functions for dealing with EQs: LNetEQAlloc() is used to
152  * create an EQ and allocate the resources needed, while LNetEQFree()
153  * releases these resources and free the EQ. LNetEQGet() retrieves the next
154  * event from an EQ, and LNetEQWait() can be used to block a process until
