Do smartmontools work with ada/ahci disks? Any tweaks/hacks to make it possible?

It needs new interface module. Somebody have to combine CAM API smartmontools interface module used for SCSI devices and ATA SMART commands.

So you mean it should practically be the same as existing ATA module, but
instead of ATA ioctl it should use cam(3)?

Yes.

Thinking out loud - maybe it's possible to support IOCATAREQUEST on ada devices and internally convert it to appropriate CAM command.
