Unfortunately, I see this:

root@elm3a253:~# smp_discover -mb /dev/mptctl
MPTCOMMAND ioctl failed: No such device
ioctl failed
smp_send_req failed, res=-1

...a strace of the app reveals this:

stat("/dev/mptctl", {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0660, st_rdev=makedev(10, 220),
...}) = 0
open("/dev/mptctl", O_RDWR)             = 3
brk(0)                                  = 0x508000
brk(0x529000)                           = 0x529000
ioctl(3, 0xc0486d14, 0x508010)          = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
