My motherboard has three separate SATA controllers each in their own IOMMU group. Two ASMedia controllers and the one in the Intel PCH.
I want to make sure my main drives are using the Intel controller.
How can I see which SATA controllers are being used and for which drives?
Looking for GNU/Linux commands that display text info.
EDIT: Here's my lshw -class storage -class disk output:

The device hierarchy is available in /sys, if you don't want to do it manually, you can use udevadm:
$ udevadm info -q path -n /dev/sda /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.2/ata1/host0/target0:0:0/0:0:0:0/block/sda So on my system, /dev/sda is SCSI unit 0:0:0:0, and the SATA controller has PCI id 0000:00:1f.2, which is the Intel PCH controller:
$ lspci 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller (rev 05) $ ls -l /sys/class/block |grep -I "sd*" Then lspci | grep SATA to find it
