Well, it was sysutils/megarc for PERC/4. On PERC/5 mfi(1), it's whatever we
decide to call it.
Dell is shipping a CLI with OMSA or whatever. We may have to hack on the
kernel interface:

We've got the /dev/mfi? management interface already, just need to
port the Linux code over.
I'm really starting to think OpenBSD will beat FreeBSD to the game with the
bio(4) RAID management hardware abstraction subsystem:
