Description
This is reflecting on my previous moving ACPI nodes out of 'Unknown devices'
SCSI (ATA) devices are also listed as unknown devices.
The ATA device tree we are being passed is pretty hard identify to objects in. This is a patch to identify SCSI devices on the scsi bus and display some basic information on them and breaks them out from 'Unknown devices' as SCSI/ATA end points are pretty important. See screenshots for an example of how it works.
I am not sure this is the final direction things need to go, the kernel identification of ATA/IDE controllers right now is pretty funky. I put SCSI devices in 'Computer' category for now as they don't make sense under the 'Mass storage controller' category... Ideally they need to be under the controllers in the category view... but thats not implimented yet. I went with the side of caution.
A few cosmetic tab repairs are also included.

Can you give a link to the other ticket? I've tried to look it up by component, but was unable to find it.

They should probably be under Mass storage controller. If you want you can do 'cat /dev/acpi/namespace' to see the tree from ACPI's point of view. The names are pretty cryptic atm. See source:haiku/trunk/src/add-ons/kernel/bus_managers/acpi/acpi_ns_dump.cpp for the impl of that.

Yeah, taking a step back and looking at this you are probably right. (it's been a few months since I made this patch)
Let me do a quick rework of this patch and I will re-post it here when it is more rounded.
Thanks!
