Assuming it's simply an 8259, you can find the relevant information in the
package called HelpPC (in the hardware section), available from:
ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/simtelnet/msdos/info/helppc21.zip
This package also has info on a lot of other chips, such as various UARTs
and keyboard controllers and so on.
Under Linux, the PIC is shown as using ports 0x20-0x3f, so it's definitly
part of the PIC.
