I'm debugging a second stage boot loader for a PC with SATA AHCI controller. I'm able to enumerate the PCI bus and find the hard disk. So far, so good. Now, lspci in my notebook (Dell Inspiron 1525) show me:

-[0000:00]-+-1f.0  Intel Corporation 82801HEM (ICH8M) LPC Interface Controller
           +-1f.1  Intel Corporation 82801HBM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) IDE Controller
           +-1f.2  Intel Corporation 82801HBM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) SATA AHCI Controller
           \-1f.3  Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) SMBus Controller

My question: Is SATA AHCI Controller always function 2 in any PC? If not, how I found?

I don't pretend to be general; booting my notebook will be good enough, without compromise further refinements.
