		Table 23 — Interface Path Definitions (part 2 of 2)

Host Bus Type	Offset	Type	Definition
PCI-X	48	Byte	PCI-X bus number. Values 00h through FEh shall represent a valid PCI bus.
			Value FFh shall indicate that this field is not used.

	49	Byte	PCI slot number. Values 00h through FEh shall represent a valid PCI slot.
			Value FFh shall indicate that this field is not used.

	50	Byte	PCI function number. Values 00h through FEh shall represent a valid PCI
			function.
			Value FFh shall indicate that this field is not used.

	51	Byte	Channel number. If more than one interface of the same type is accessed
			through a single Bus, Slot, Function, then the channel number shall identify
			each interface. If there is only one interface, the content of this field shall be
			cleared to zero. If there are two interfaces, such as an ATA Primary and
			Secondary interface, the primary interface shall be zero, and the secondary
			interface shall be one.
			Values 00h through FEh shall represent a valid Channel Number.
			Value FFh shall indicate that this field is not used.
			If the device is connected to a SATA controller functioning in non-PATA
			emulation mode, this byte shall be FFh.

	52	DWord	Reserved

Infiniband	48h	Qword	Reserved

PCI Express	48h	Qword	See PCI

HyperTransport	48h	Qword	See PCI

8.20.3 Device Path

The Device Path at offset 56 combined with the Interface Path allows software external to a system BIOS to locate a specific mass storage device. The Device Path field provides a path from an interface to a specific device. The format of the Device Path at offset 40 through 47 is dependent on the Interface type.
