NAME
     ahcisata - AHCI 1.0 and 1.1 compliant SATA controllers driver

SYNOPSIS
     ahcisata* at pci? dev ? function ? flags 0x0000

DESCRIPTION
     The ahcisata driver supports SATA controllers compliant with the Serial

     and provides the interface to the hardware for the ata(4) driver.

     will be handled by the appropriate driver (piixide(4) for Intel AHCI
     controllers).
