                   Specify the quality of service provided by a
                   connection.  The expected optlen is size of uint8_t.

       RDMA_OPTION_ID_REUSEADDR
                   Bound the rdma_cm_id to a reuseable address. This
                   will allow other users to bind to that same address.
                   The expected optlen is size of int.

       RDMA_OPTION_ID_AFONLY
                   Set IPV6_V6ONLY socket.  The expected optlen is size

                   to the formula 4.096 * 2^(ack_timeout) usec.
