Bruno, is it not available because Warnock Pro is an OpenType font?

Atip, I posted a link to fd files for a number of Adobe OpenType fonts 
including Adobe Garamond Pro and Warnock Pro. In case you missed it 
they are at 
http://jbreitenbuch.wooster.edu/~jonb/AdobeTypeClassicsplus.zip and 
I'll probably update them soon. If you have OpenType fonts and want to 
find out what features they have enter the following in the Terminal

otfinfo -f WarnockPro-Regular.otf

(This assumes that you installed Eddie Kohler's font tools using 
i-Installer.)

For your immediate question of small caps in Warnock Pro the 
declaration should be

\DeclareFontShape{U}{owp}{m}{sc}{
    <-> "Warnock\space Pro:+onum, +smcp"
    }{}

and if you have the optical variants use

\DeclareFontShape{U}{owp}{m}{sc}{
    <-8.9> "Warnock\space Pro\space Caption:+onum, +smcp"
    <9.0-12.9> "Warnock\space Pro:+onum, +smcp"
    <13.0-24.9> "Warnock\space Pro\space Subhead:+onum, +smcp"
    <25.0-> "Warnock\space Pro\space Display:+lnum, +smcp"
}{}

In the above I named the font owp for OpenType Warnock Pro, which is 
not the Berry scheme but I'm not sure how to name it in the Berry 
Scheme.
