Description: Type of Channel Adapter; either a Host Channel Adapter (HCA), or a Target Channel Adapter (TCA). The key difference between an HCA and a TCA is that the HCA supports the IBA Verbs layer, while a TCA uses an implementation dependent interface to the transport layer. If the type of CA cannot be determined, the unknown(1) value is returned.
What is mlxIBCAType?
Whether this Channel Adapter is a Host Channel Adapter (HCA, which supports the IBA Verbs layer) or a Target Channel Adapter (TCA, which uses a vendor-specific transport interface); unknown(1) is returned if the type can't be determined.
