Jason,

My flush example got wrong since V5 where responder side does
qp_access_flags check. so i added this patch.

I also agreed it's a good idea that we should only add this flush flag
to the supported drivers. But i haven't figured out how to achieve it in
current RDMA.

After more digging into rdma-core, i found that this flag can be also
set from usespace by calling ibv_modify_qp().
For server side(responder), ibv_modify_qp() must be called after
rdma_accept(). rdma_accept() inside will modify qp_access_flags
again(rdma_get_request is the first place to modify qp_access_flags).

Back to the original question, IIUC, current rdma-core have no API to
set qp_access_flags during qp creating.

FLUSH operation in responder side will check both mr->access_flags and
qp_access_flags. So unsupported device/driver are not able to do flush
at all though qp_access_flags apply to all drivers.
