Hopefully this might help you:

$ ls -al /sys/class/scsi_device | grep ata
lrwxrwxrwx.  1 root root 0 Jan 29 05:12 4:0:0:0 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:17.0/ata5/host4/target4:0:0/4:0:0:0/scsi_device/4:0:0:0

For a specific device, e.g. 4:0:0:0:

$ realpath /sys/class/scsi_device/4:0:0:0/
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:17.0/ata5/host4/target4:0:0/4:0:0:0/scsi_device/4:0:0:0

To get the block device name:
$ ls /sys/class/scsi_device/4:0:0:0/device/block/
sda

or

$ ls /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:17.0/ata5/host4/target4:0:0/4:0:0:0/scsi_device/4:0:0:0/device/block/
sda


You can parse the port from the path. The above example is port 5.

If using a port multiplier (PM), there can be multiple links/devices per port.


Otherwise, for SATA there should be only one.

$ ls -al /sys/class/ata_port/ata5/device/ | grep link | wc -l
1

$ ls -al /sys/class/ata_port/ata5/device/link5/dev5.0/firmware_node

or

$ ls -al  /sys/class/ata_device/dev5.*/device/firmware_node



For PCI BDF, you can use /dev/disk/by-path/

$ ls -al /dev/disk/by-path/ | grep ata

lrwxrwxrwx.  1 root root   9 Jan 29 05:11 pci-0000:00:17.0-ata-8.0 -> ../../sdd

Note that these suffixes do not correlate to the ata port number in /sys/class/ata_*
