still trying to get a P2P FCoE set up.

fcc.sh showed the link between initiator and target is alive, however
whenever I used 'fcoeadm -t' it says:
"No FCoE interfaces created."

This message is from HBA_GetNumberOfAdapters() from libhbalinux.

I don't have a HBA, for that matter, a CNA either. I'm using an
ethernet port(with pause-frame) to do the test, iscsi works fine
there, just that FCoE does not.

My question is that, FCoE and iSCSI should both work with just the
Ethernet port(i.e. no HBA/CNA), why is that fcoeadm fails when it
finds no HBA adapter(via HBA_GetNumberOfAdapters)? is Ethernet
considered as HBA in this case, if so I did see the link alive(by
fcc.sh) which means it finds Ethernet port already(via fcoeadm -c
eth0)

Thanks,
Xianghua
