Subject: How to tap into running libata?

Hi everyone,
I am trying to write a program to talk through the libata driver to control a SATA drive connected to a SiI 3124 PCI card. Can anyone tell me how to query/probe the driver to find out what it knows about my device?
I know the drive is alive because I can issue the usual shell commands (fdisk, mkfs, mount, cp, ls, etc) to it and they all work. Device comes up as /dev/sda and dev/sda1 once it's partitioned. It is the only SATA device in the system, although ultimately there will be more drives connected to the 3124 card.
Thank you in advance!
