>Description:
 
 I have created patches for port sysutils/smartmontools for 3ware twa
 support. However they are somewhat longer, so I have uploaded them to
 ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.cz/pub/FreeBSD-local/smartmontools-5.33-twa/:
 
 patch-config.h.in
   - just in the case if twa include files are installed
 patch-configure.in
   - just in the case if twa include files are installed
   (both untested and they are not needed for port)
 
 patch-os_freebsd.h
   - copy outs from twa include files
 patch-os_freebsd.c.2
   - it is not sufficient to test just ioctl() return value in FreeBSD,
   because when SMART is disabled, ioctl() returns 0 and only request.error
   indicates, that something went wrong (and I have removed one perror(),
   because it produced not very fine output, when smartctl -i /dev/ad0 has
   been called on drive with disabled SMART: Unknown error 0)
   (this patch is for better smartctl functionality and is useful in all
   cases, even without twa support)
 patch-os_freebsd.c.3
   - main patch for twa support with one redundant line
   "cmd->tu_command.ata.sector_count = 1;" removed.
 
 I have mailed about twa support to maintainer (martines@rochester.rr.com)
 at Sun, 7 Aug 2005, however still without response, so I decided to send
 them as PR too, so it is not forgotten.
