JMicron36xAHCIEnabler.kext - puts controller into AHCI mode

[dmazar 119]

Some ASUS boards have JMicron SATA controllers in legacy IDE mode and no option in BIOS to put it into AHCI.

 

DSDT solutions are discussed here:

[sOLVED] JMicron SATA/IDE PCIe Card eSATA problem, Card is using Legacy-IDE on eSATA ports

Patch DSDT for JMB362 in AHCI mode

[sOLVED AGAIN] Fine Tuning SATA/eSATA on Asus P8P67 Pro

 

Solution comes from from here:

drivers/pci/quirks.c

 

Here is the kext version of the solution made for excersise. I prefer DSDT, but if somebody does not want to mess with DSDT can try this one.

 

Issues: does not have support for sleep/wake. Sleep is not working for me so could not test it.
