## SYNOPSIS

```
#include <infiniband/umad.h>

int umad_debug(int level);

## DESCRIPTION

**umad\_debug()** sets the umad library internal debug level to *level.* The following debug levels are supported: 0 - no debug (the default), 1 - basic debug information, 2 - verbose debug information. Negative values are ignored in terms of set. Note that the current debug level can be queried by passing a negative value as *level.*
