They look "upside down" to me. You are trying to connect a SCSI bus
to a particular device?
Run a "camcontrol devlist -v" to see the HBA names. You can only wire
a bus onto an HBA, and then a device onto a bus. I think you want
something like
hint.scbus.2.at="ata0"
The umass controller might be more difficult. Mine is called
"umass-sim0", I guess there could be many of them, no idea whether
they honor device hints at all. But perhaps you don't need those.
For your pass device, I don't know whether it can be wired down at
all. If so, try
hint.pass.3.at="scbus1"
hint.pass.3.target="0"
I used to do something like that by the time I had multiple tape
drives and multiple CD-{R,ROM} drives, but I don't wire my devices
down anymore these days.
