Hi, you can find it here:
https://github.com/rayrapetyan/daal/tree/FreeBSD_support
All files in e.g. 
https://github.com/rayrapetyan/daal/tree/FreeBSD_support/externals/mklfpk/lnx/lib/intel64 
are "large files" they are fetching normally when doing git pull, but 
when downloading from "codeload" (this is what FreeBSD does) - they 
contain just text hashes...
