I guess the point of my post was that the ASM 1042 will now work on a hackintosh with a simple plist hack to allow the Caldigit driver to load.
The PXHCD kext doesn't work for this USB3 controller.

What did you change in the plist?
Yup the modified drivers load and show up as super speed bus in system information spose i better test if they actually work though.

Yup they actually work!

What about shutdown, restart, sleep and autosleep ? Can you post modded kext ?

Thanks for package, got this installed on OS X 10.7.4, but when connected my Microsoft LifeCam NX-6000 Webcam or iPhone 4, got some system kernel panic.
There must be still problem with this mod kexts ;(

Strange, it has no problem with my usb 3 hdd enclosure or my motorola xoom. Did you uninstall any previous usb3 drivers first?

Didnt have any before.
For now it seems to work OK, but my installation was only to copy 3 kexts to S/L/E

Quote

CalDigitFastIO.kext
CalDigitHDProDrv.kext
CalDigitUSBxHCI.kext

How i can test this now?

Well you didn't get CalDigitHDProDrv.kext from my installer package thats for sure so I'm not going to stick my neck out as i can only vouch for stuff that I have tested

This is why i had KP before, problem solved, thanks
You did good work man, as my pci-e USB 3.0 controller was not used for about 5 months.

Now need to do some tests...

[12 June 2012 10:15 AM]
It is about 16h and still no KP, controller seems to work just fine.

Hi, Andy,
I got the same error from your installer package in which there are only two files instead of three.
That means one file (CalDigitHDProDrv.kext) is missing for me.

In Andy's package you have only two kext:

CalDigitFastIO.kext

CalDigitUSBxHCI.kext

Nothing else.

Check if you have there other kext for USB3, then delete them. Or start from fresh OSX.

First, thank you for your work.

I have this mobo : Asrock ASRock Z68M-ITX/HT  with a ASMedia ASM1042  USB3 controller.  (OSX 10.7.4)
I tried to install CalDigitFastIO.kext and CalDigitUSBxHCI.kext with the installer provided (ASMedia USB 3.0 Driver Installer)
They don't load, and USB3 does not appear in system profiler

When I force load CalDigitFastIO.kext : no problem.

=> When I force load CalDigitUSBxHCI.kext , I get this error msg in Console :


28/08/12 02:14:42,000 kernel: kxld[com.CalDigit.driver.CalDigitUSBxHCI]: The super class vtable '__ZTV17IOUSBControllerV3' for vtable '__ZTV15CalDigitUSBxHCI' is out of date. Make sure your kext has been built against the correct headers.

Do you think I can do something ?

Working fine on my new Asus board. There's a DSDT edit needed in order to prevent the ports immediately waking the computer from sleep. Thanks to mlydinesh@ for posting the kexts and info on osx86.net.

First, use IORegistryExplorer to find your USB3 ports. You'll know by the vendor/device id. Then place the following code into each instance.

Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
					{
						Store (Package (0x0A)
							{
								"AAPL,clock-id",
								Buffer (One)
								{
									0x02
								},
								"AAPL,slot-name",
								Buffer (0x07)
								{
									"Slot-4"
								},
								"name",
								Buffer (0x18)
								{
									"ASMedia XHCI Controller"
								},
								"model",
								Buffer (0x28)
								{
									"ASMedia ASM1042 USB 3.0 xHCI Controller"
								},
								"device_type",
								Buffer (0x0F)
								{
									"USB Controller"
								}
							}, Local0)
						DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
						Return (Local0)
					}

Here's a pic of my DSDT showing where I put them. I removed the slot-name attribute as these are onboard ports, so I didn't want them showing up in the PCI Cards section of System Profiler. The name, model and device_type attributes are all optional and cosmetic. Only clock-id is required to fix sleep.

The only remaining issue is any storage devices attached to the USB3 ports will be improperly removed on wake.

kernel[0]: [0xffffff8018d7d400](0)/(5) Device not responding
kernel[0]: disk3s1: media is not present.

P.S. CalDigitHDProDrv.kext comes with 10.8 (and maybe earlier).

Mountain Lion friendly version of the kexts available here http://www.mediafire...dxcetph021ft8uy if anybody needs them.

[oswaldini]

Andy, can You tell me what you changed in this kexts ? Some binpath or changes in info.plist ? If you modify info.plist we can make legacy kext.

Simple edit to the info.plist to remove all of the matching except for IOPCIClassMatch

[djohnsto77]

After what seemed an eternity this is what worked for me (you'll need a hex editor like 0xED)

#195   

I have only tried a hub and a USB stick, but everything seems to show up right in system report.

Not remove — ADD YOUR ID — primary and secondary.
