These shell tools have all been de-supported by the infiniband-diags
maintainer, exactly because they are prone to these sorts of problems
due to inherent design flaws.

The recommendation is to use the new C based commands, but there is

python-rdma's ibtool command has work-alikes for all of the old
commands that do not have these issues for people who absolutely must
have the old commands.
