Yes, unless you do something to defeat the ABI versioning.

libibverbs has a versioned ABI.  So if you link your app against
libibverbs 1.0, it will be linked against IBVERBS_1.0 symbols and
still work with the libibverbs 1.1 dynamic library.

A number of changes required struct layout differences etc., so a new
IBVERBS_1.1 ABI was introduced as well.  But you will only get that by
linking against libibverbs 1.1.
