Syntax
#include <sys/hbaapi.h>
HBA_STATUS HBA_SendCTPassThru (handle, pReqBuffer, ReqBufferSize, pRspBuffer, RspBufferSize)

void *pReqBuffer;
HBA_UINT32 ReqBufferSize;
void *pRspBuffer;
HBA_UINT32 RspBufferSize;Description
The HBA_SendCTPassThru subroutine sends a CT pass through frame to a fabric connected to the specified handle. The CT frame is routed in the fabric according to the GS_TYPE field in the CT frame.

|---|---|
| handle | HBA_HANDLE to an open adapter. |
| pReqBuffer | Pointer to a buffer that contains the CT request. |
| ReqBufferSize | Size of the request buffer. |
| pRspBuffer | Pointer to a buffer that receives the response of the command. |
| RspBufferSize | Size of the response buffer. |
Return Values
If successful, HBA_STATUS_OK is returned, and the pRspBuffer parameter points to the CT response.
