DSDT fixes for Gigabyte boards

kdawg · March 29, 2010

Those of you looking to get their Firewire hot plug to function properly let me know your milage on this patch. Not working for me but I want to see if others have any luck.

I investigated more time, to find a solution for this ''bug'', seems, that DSDT fix will work only with 1394a(800Mb) versions, the rest others will work in half mode with this fix, or in full mode with power conservation disabled message. Of course we can have a full support with firewire modified kext, but I think doesn't make sense, I don't like to have to many kexts in extra, if it can can be done w/o that, so power conservation disabled message doesn't matter for me.

lol. give me your DSDT that you are using now and I will fix Firewire for you.

I've tested this patch on different machines and it is working

I upgraded to 10.6.3 and at the same time grabbed the dsdt and smbios in the front of this forum then rebooted and thought better cross my finger. System is looking good though my processor speed is not correct should be 2.4 and it's 1.67 gzh in hardware overview. Good work guys Shoot sounds not working either

Oh I have this set up

GA ep35-ds3l

Quad core 2.4 that's showing as a 1.67

3 gb of ram

9800gtx ( this is showing as unknown)

Mac os 6.3

mac model 3.1

thanks for any insights

Can someone explain me how to replace the DTGP call "DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0)" with MCDP?

Method (MCDP, 2, NotSerialized) //<--Master Chief's Method
{
   If (LEqual (Arg0, Zero))
   {
       Store (Buffer (One)
       {
           0x03
       }, Arg1)
   }
}

Device (LPCB) //<--Renamed from PX40
{
   Name (_ADR, 0x001F0000)
   Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized) //<--AppleLPC fix
   {
       Store (Package (0x02)
           {

               Buffer (0x04){0x18, 0x3A, 0x00, 0x00}
           }, Local0)
       DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0)) //<---- How can I call MCDP?
       Return (Local0)

MCDP originated here:

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php...t&p=1280888

Grab the latest attached DSDT to see how it works.

leslieking · April 3, 2010

I think this is the correct one, altough I'm not 100% sure:

MCDP (Arg2, RefOf (Local0))

Master Chief's DSDT3 doesn't have the same AppleLPC fix.

Beerkex'd · April 3, 2010

MCDP (Arg2, RefOf (Local0))

Yes, that's it. Just replace the DTGP caller with that.

Master Chief's DSDT3 doesn't have the same AppleLPC fix.

Different board, different manufacturer, different BIOS vendor, different code.

Can I remove this code?

I have not found any information in the ACPI specification / ICH10 Datasheet. I would be grateful for any help!

artimess · April 5, 2010

You may want to re-read the Intel datasheet again, and then please pay attention to the following section: "Port-Routing Logic" (see attachments) because the default EHCI setup is "Six and Six" where the extra port, configured at BIOS post, is only used in the "Eight and Four" setup. You must have missed this text: "D26:F2 can be configured as D29:F3 during BIOS Post."

In short: You can remove that port from your DSDT when in the "Six and Six" configuration, which is again the default setup. Do you perhaps have some kind of BIOS setting for this?

Thank you for this confirmation. I sort of knew this already, but I like you people to confirm it for me.

EHCI only. UHCI is fine.

Which to me basically means that we are not done, yet. And audio fixes will have to wait for now, or things will get out of control rapidly.

Master Chief and other experts,

I have a situation that my USBR (0x001D0003) is used and commenting it I lose one of my USB2 ports.

I am wondering if there are other device ids beyond the six that have been around so that I can use for my USBR port and get back my USB2 to work. If I just leave it as it is, it comes up as expansion slot and I lose sleep capability.

I do not have any BIOS option to turn it off or on, and even commenting DSDT section does not solve the problem, as it is still recognized as an expansion slot.

Any suggestion how to get back my USB2 port without losing sleep capability? Here is a short lspci listing of my devices:

Problem Solved!

The solution was to use the same device id for UH6 and USBR in my case or whatever name one may have for device on the 0x001D0003 address. In fact on re-reading the ICH9 manual I noticed it mentioning that UHC6 and USBR have the same device id.

       Return (Local0)
   }
} // <-- Ethernet port 1

It looks good, but I have a PCI Ethernet adapter (not built-in / not soldered to the motherboard).

I attached my lspci output. Someone can help me to change the values to reflect my adapter? Or point me to any reference?

I would be more than grateful for any help!

I would like to add my NetGear GA311 Ethernet adapter to the DSDT.
Kdawg uses this one in his DSDT:
Device (LAN0) {
   Name (_ADR, Zero)
   Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
   {
       Store (Package (0x08) {
               "location", Buffer (0x02){"1"},
               "built-in", Buffer (0x02){0x01},
               "device_type", Buffer (0x09){"ethernet"},
               "name", Buffer (0x01F){"Realtek RTL8111C PCI-E Gigabit"}
           }, Local0)
       DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
       Return (Local0)
   }
} // <-- Ethernet port 1

Attach your DSDT and I'll add it in for you.

Thanks, mate!

For some reason I can't upload the DSDT so try this adding this next to your firewire device like so:

				Device (LAN0) {
				Name (_ADR, 0x00010000)
				Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized) {
					Store (Package (0x08) {
							"location", Buffer (0x02){"1"},
							"built-in", Buffer (0x02){0x01},
							"device_type", Buffer (0x09){"ethernet"},
							"name", Buffer (0x01E){"Realtek RTL8169 PCI-E Gigabit"}
						}, Local0)
					MCDP (Arg2, RefOf (Local0))
					Return (Local0)
				}
			} // <-- Ethernet port 1

			Device (FRWR) //<--Firewire 
			{
				Name (_ADR, 0x00070000)
				Name (_GPE, 0x1A)
				Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
				{
					Store (Package (0x02)
					{
						"fwports", Buffer (0x04){0x02, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00}
					}, Local0)
					MCDP (Arg2, RefOf (Local0))
					Return (Local0)
				}
			}

@kdawg Is a good idea to use the same _ADR for "PEGP" and "LAN0" ?

I just finished injecting the nVidia card to the DSDT. Can you check my latest DSDT?

It's on another bus so it should work.

leslieking · April 13, 2010

Why do you have PEG and LAN0 in device (PCI0) ?

My LAN adapter is in the device (PCIB).

Take a peek at my DSDT in my signature. That's the one I use.

Do you guys know how I can get my PCI firewire card to show up under PCI Devises?

I believe you said your network card was an add on. So the location of your card matters, if you move it to another slot the address will change. Yours appears to be on the same bus as your Firewire. If you notice I have a wireless network card in my DSDT that's ganged with my Firewire as well. The network ports I use are the built in ones. Those are the correct locations for mine.

Is the patch not working for you?

leslieking · April 13, 2010

I have a separate LAN adapter - NetGear GA311 (not soldered to the motherboard). On-board ethernet is disabled in BIOS.

I think you mean the red values, right?:

03:01.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 Gigabit Ethernet [10ec:8169] (rev 10)

03:07.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394) [0c00]: Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link) [104c:8024]

BTW. I don't need this code to use Time Machine:

<key>EthernetBuiltIn</key>
<string>Yes</string>

Time machine even works for me without device (LAN0).

Yeah the part you want to take notice of are the middle two numbers. The 01 and 07.

I dont need the built in string either.

I am using blackosx's patched DSDT and i don't see the EC device added, is it necessary? device SBUS is already added

Thanks in advance
