Comment 2 Bernd Ziller 2016-01-05 06:15:52 UTC 
This has been fixed upstream in release 6.3 of smartmontools:

https://www.smartmontools.org/browser/tags/RELEASE_6_3/smartmontools/os_linux.cpp#L2710

https://www.smartmontools.org/changeset/3877

https://www.smartmontools.org/ticket/317


The parameter max_pathc limits the matching device list to 32 devices, so that get_dev_list(devlist, "/dev/sd[a-c][a-z]", false, true, type, autodetect); will only return the first 32 devices of /dev/sd[a-c][a-z].
