Unfortunately, this header file is not installed by installworld, which means, any programs wishing to use the IOCTLs can only be built in the presence of /sys tree. Until fairly recently no such programs really existed, but now smartmontools could support access to individual hard-drives behind a ciss RAID controller. Building the functionality requires the header file (which, luckily, is the same as on Linux). >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Fix is trivial -- 5 minutes of a src-committer time is all that's required :-) >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
