Hey, I would like to get my rtl 8139 family dsdt.dsl.

What should I modify ?

==============================================================
credit to mitch_de, I got from mitch_de's patched DSDT.


			Device (LAN0)
				{
					Name (_ADR, 0x00)
					Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
					{
						0x0B, 
						0x04
					})
					Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
					{
						Store (Package (0x04)
							{
								"built-in", 
								Buffer (0x01)
								{
									0x01
								}, 

								"device_type", 
								Buffer (0x09)
								{
									"ethernet"
								}
							}, Local0)
						DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
						Return (Local0)
					}
				}

First you must know what name your LAN device has in the DSDT. You can look in the IORegistryExplorer and look where the lan drivers are listed.

Then you can use:

[size=1]Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)                    {                        Store (Package (0x04)                            {                                "built-in",                                 Buffer (0x01)                                {                                    0x01                                },                                 "device_type",                                 Buffer (0x09)                                {                                    "ethernet"                                }                            }, Local0)                        DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))                        Return (Local0)                    }[/size]

In the Device (yours) part add that code above - thats all. There is no special code for exact lan chip device ID needed.
Also some PCI EFI bootloaders have on boot option to set lan to build in also (does same as that above).
If you already have that method DTGP in use (for other injextions) that all. If no DTGP you must first add this method into DSDT.
But for further Q&A please use one of the DSDT threads in the forum part Genuis (all how tos are there).

Guys,

Thanks for the updated 'iasl'. I'm pretty new to DSDT hacking so please excuse my ignorance.

I extracted a unpatched DSDT.dsl using 'Patcher02Beta' applied the RTC fix for Snow Leopard and changed 'AZAL' to 'HDEF' (two places) just to start off. With the version of 'iasl' I had it returned over 200 error and didn't list them but with the new on it returned only 2 (Local0) errors and the _WAK warning.

While this is great because it won't take long to get a compilable DSDT.dsl should I be concerned about where the other 198+ errors went or is the new 'iasl' just that much better?

Thanks

[mitch_de]

I would say (my opinion) that we must see two different things comparing newer iasl and older ones:
1. The fix of compiler errors, handling of "not good" dsdt source code = getting complied or not
and
2. The result in working / praktical way of an compiled dsdt
I think that if an dsdt source getting compiled (no errors by lots of workarounds: older iasl / less workarounds newer iasl) the result (woring) is the same.

So major benefit of newer iasl is getting dsdt compiled easier (less errors) and not getting an "better working" dsdt.aml. I dont think that problems with sleep,... getting fixed with newer iasl vs older one.

last but not least : UPDATED IASL + iaslME to 20091013 Version

9. Change directory to "$CURRENT/compiler" and run the following command.

make LDLIBS=''

This gives a 64 bit binary, to get a 32 bit one use;
make LDLIBS='' CC='cc -m32'

Thanks mitch_de. Good to see you keeping this up to date

[mitch_de]

, Thanks.
But i cant garantie that i will be every time sooo fast : Only a few hours after orig. Source update , you got the OS X version too

Can I use the old DSDT patcher version 1.0.1e and just replace the iasl binary in it? Or is therea better / newer / recommender DSDT maker front-end? Thank you!

Sure, it should work to use only the IASL commandline in all other GUI Apps.
But if possible i would NOT use such old GUIs anymore, because some DSDT patches are "old way" patches.
Better to use dsdt hints from DSDT forum or use the great , also user friendly but much, much complete + new DSDTSE:

http://www.osx86.es/?p=610
Thats all in one really good: very large+newest dsdt patchtes with explaining text/ tipp database, editor,....

I use that / beside iASLme (quick compile/disass) with IASL 12.11.2009. You can copy (as ti all GUIs) IASL into the DSDTSE ../ressources and overwrite the older IASL version there. I think its an version Juli/August there.


HAPPY PATCHING!

I don't need BIOS patching.

I would like to create a DSDT file. As far as I know "iaslme" is used to compile/decompile an existing dsdt, but how can I create one? Thanks!

Then use the PDF guide as a general reference for building your own DSDT

Is there any difference between Koalala's ACPIpatcher and Fassl dsdt patcher?

iASL: Fixed a regression introduced in 20091112 where intermediate .SRC files were no longer automatically removed at the termination of the compile.

[mitch_de]

Same procdure as every "year" - NEW IASL SOURCE = NEW OS X version compiled
