Ever since the upgrade to 12.3 I cannot use smartctl, despite giving the correct -d option (tried both 'ata' and 'atacam', both fail). All drives are SATA.

Code: 
 smartctl  -a -d ata  -T permissive /dev/ada3

I have been using smartctl on these devices (all 8 in the box fail like this) for years, but 12.3 has a problem.
On another box the '-d atacam' solved this, but on this box nothing I have tried has resulted in useful detection of the drives. Is this a bug in the underlying CAM or GEOM modules?
 
Is SMART turned on in the BIOS/UEFI? Sometimes you can switch this on or off there.

Which disk controller does the machine have?
Click to expand...
It is an Intel® Server Board S3420GP

6 SATA ports onboard
and a PCIe 2 port SATA card from SiS

Mar 9 10:19:40 iwr kernel: siis0: <SiI3132 SATA controller> port 0x2000-0x207f mem 0xf1a04000-0xf1a0407f,0xf1a00000-0xf1a03fff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci1
Mar 9 10:19:40 iwr kernel: ahci0: <Intel Ibex Peak AHCI SATA controller> port 0x3068-0x306f,0x3074-0x3077,0x3060-0x3067,0x3070-0x3073,0x3020-0x303f mem 0xf1b20000-0xf1b207ff irq 18 at device 31.2 on pci0

for a total of 8 SATA disks plugged in. Boot device is a gmirror of 2x500GB drives.

smartctl fails on all of them, so what they are and where they are plugged in does not appear to matter.

ada7 is not part of a mirror or raid3, so lets try that
Code: 
smartctl  -a /dev/ada7
