No, I do have a correct /etc/hba.conf:
$ grep libzfcphbaapi /etc/hba.conf 
com.ibm.libzfcphbaapi /usr/lib64/libzfcphbaapi.so.0
and bumping the log level via export LIB_ZFCP_HBAAPI_LOG_LEVEL=1 just adds 
'(vlib.c:105)_initvlib: libzfcphbaapi.so loaded at Nov 15 15:43:23' to the 1st
line of zfcp_ping output.

Here's the full output:
$ zfcp_ping -v -a 0.0.fc00 -d 0x50050763051b473a
(vlib.c:105)_initvlib: libzfcphbaapi.so loaded at Nov 15 15:45:33

I agree this looks a bit suspicious and I'll add some debugs in the kernel to
see what's going on.

That'll be great, thanks.
