Library Calls for Fibre Channel HBA Added
This kit provide a wrapper library and HBA-specific library for the Emulex adapter, which
conforms to the T11 FC-HBA (T11/1568-D Revision 14) specification.
The purpose of this specification is to provide a host bus adapter (HBA) programming interface
for Fibre Channel management applications to gather information about devices in the network
in a vendor-neutral way through a set of Application Programming Interface (APIs). As a result
of this neutrality, applications do not depend on the platform they run on or for a specific HBA,
and therefore will not need to be rewritten.
This kit supports the following APIs:
• HBA_GetVersion
• HBA_LoadLibrary
• HBA_FreeLibrary
• HBA_RegisterLibraryV2
• HBA_GetWrapperLibraryAttributes
• HBA_GetVendorLibraryAttributes
• HBA_GetNumberOfAdapters
• HBA_RefreshInformation
• HBA_RefreshAdapterConfiguration
• HBA_GetAdapterName
• HBA_OpenAdapter
• HBA_CloseAdapter
• HBA_GetAdapterAttributes
• HBA_GetAdapterPortAttributes
• HBA_GetDiscoveredPortAttributes
• HBA_GetPortAttributesByWWN
• HBA_GetPortStatistics
• HBA_GetBindingCapability
• HBA_GetBindingSupport
• HBA_SetBindingSupport
• HBA_GetFcpTargetMapping
