It is not the case. cciss.cpp from the sources uses dev/ciss/cissio.h to work with cciss devices on FreeBSD. configure script checks if this file is exists on the compile time, and if its not - does not compile cciss support in the smartmontools. If user will try to use cciss driver in this case - smartmontools will display an error: "CCISS support is not available in this build of smartmontools,\n" "/usr/src/sys/dev/ciss/cissio.h was not available at build time.\n\n"); > > What you've been told (that we prefer not to have userland tools > include /usr/src directly) is accurate, so the burden of proof is on > you to explain why it's necessary in this case.
