To help users distinguish between SMART capabilities and Linux process capabilities I suggest the following changes:

in smartd.cpp:

replace Use capabilities. by Drop Linux process capabilities

in smartd.8.in:

replace Use capabilities(7). by Use libcap to drop Linux process capabilities(7).

# smartctl -a -d cciss,4 /dev/ciss0 smartctl version 5.38 [amd64-portbld-freebsd7.2] Copyright (C) 2002-8 Bruce Allen Home page is ​http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/

Standard Inquiry (36 bytes) failed [Device not configured] Retrying with a 64 byte Standard Inquiry Standard Inquiry (64 bytes) failed [Device not configured] A mandatory SMART command failed: exiting. To continue, add one or more '-T permissive' options.

Some newer HPSA devices reply to basic SAT commands and provide inquiry that contains "ATA ".

It causes that sat variable in sat_device::autodetect_open() becomes true, and even if cciss is explicitly specified by smartctl -d cciss,0 -H /dev/sda it switches to sat dev/sda [cciss_disk_00] [SAT]: Device open changed type from 'sat,auto' to 'sat'

As a result, it causes failure: SMART STATUS RETURN: incomplete response, ATA output registers missing REPORT-IOCTL: Device=/dev/sda Command=SMART STATUS CHECK returned -1 errno=38 [Function not implemented]

Attached patch disables the auto-switch to "better" driver for cciss.

Note that I do not have a test report from the customer for that patch yet, but setting sat = 0 was already confirmed to prevent this bug.

Note that smart_interface::autodetect_sat_device() contains a similar code, but I am not sure whether it needs a fix as well.
