Mar 9 00:42:25 bombadil smartd[878]: Device: /dev/sda [megaraid_disk_00], open() failed: cannot open /dev/megaraid_sas_ioctl_node or /dev/megadev0 The node exists but has no permissions. If I make it u+rw it works. But it's not created by udev; we seem to make it *ourself*? Why not just fix the kernel to advertise it properly so that it gets managed by udev properly? I also can't actually work out *what* creates it. I hacked smartd, smartctl to change the name of the node they would create and use, and the original /dev/megaraid_sas_ioctl_node is *still* there after a reboot. I grepped the entire file system for 'megaraid_sas_ioctl_node' and don't know what's still making that node after a reboot.
I just ran into this too, on Fedora 34. Edit /etc/sysconfig/smartmontools and get rid of '--capabilities' from the smartd_opts variable, then restart. Basically, smartd is dropping capabilities before it tries to open /dev/megaraid_sas_ioctl_node, causing it to fail. I've reported this bug upstream [1] [1] https://github.com/smartmontools/smartmontools/issues/113

This message is a reminder that Fedora 33 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 33 on 2021-11-30. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '33'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 33 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
