LSI SAS2116 is either pciex1000,64 or ,65.  Both appear to be
supported by mpt_sas in OmniOS 014.  You should be good there.

I believe the C2000 SoC SATA ports are standard AHCI and should "just work".

Modulo actually being able to mount the weird form-factor in a
standard case (note that you need enough of the mounting holes to line
up, not just that the dimensions fit!), I would expect OmniOS to work.
