Kuebeker Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Has anybody ever done this? I'm trying to get a driver to load, but no mater what I do Mac always gets the official device PCI Vendor ID and Device ID. From ACPI 4.0 manual 6.1.2 _CID (Compatible ID) This optional object is used to supply OSPM with a device’s Plug and Play-Compatible Device ID. Use _CID objects when a device has no other defined hardware standard method to report its compatible IDs. Arguments: None Return Value:An Integer or String containing a single CID or a Package containing a list of CIDs A _CID object evaluates to either: A single Compatible Device ID A package of Compatible Device IDs for the device — in the order of preference, highest preference first. Each Compatible Device ID must be either: A valid HID value (a 32-bit compressed EISA type ID or a string such as “ACPI0004”). A string that uses a bus-specific nomenclature. For example, _CID can be used to specify the PCI ID. The format of a PCI ID string is one of the following: “PCI\CC_ccss”“PCI\CC_ccsspp” “PCI\VEN_vvvv&DEV_dddd&SUBSYS_ssssssss&REV_rr” “PCI\VEN_vvvv&DEV_dddd&SUBSYS_ssssssss” “PCI\VEN_vvvv&DEV_dddd&REV_rr” “PCI\VEN_vvvv&DEV_dddd” Where: cc – hexadecimal representation of the Class Code bytess – hexadecimal representation of the Subclass Code bytepp – hexadecimal representation of the Programming Interface byte vvvv – hexadecimal representation of the Vendor IDdddd – hexadecimal representation of the Device IDssssssss – hexadecimal representation of the Subsystem IDrr – hexadecimal representation of the Revision byte A compatible ID retrieved from a _CID object is only meaningful if it is a non-NULL value. Example ASL: Device (XYZ) { Name (_HID, EISAID ("PNP0303")) Name (_CID, EISAID ("PNP030B")) } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RehabMan Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 The generic ACHI driver to get ejectable sata ports. Is your SATA device not natively recognized? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khe91 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Maybe try http://rampagedev.wordpress.com/more-guides/hot-plugging-to-your-sata-ports/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuebeker Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 My drives work fine. I have 2 drives in my laptop and a 3'd on the way. With 3 hard drives always spinning the battery will not last long. So I would like to make 2 of the sata ports ejectable. Maybe tryhttp://rampagedev.wordpress.com/more-guides/hot-plugging-to-your-sata-ports/ A yes! I'll give that a try tomorrow. Frack me! There is way more to ACPI then meets the eye. _HPP (Hot Plug Parameters) _EJx : _EJx (Eject) Maybe I'll also find a way to get those USB devices ejected before sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuebeker Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 Tried and it does not work. I've read other posts that have tried _HPP and _EJx and none have reported success. So much hope and little success I'v put ACPIDebug output in all _HPP and _EJ0 methods and not one is being called. _HPP and _EJ0 is just snake oil. It does not work with Mac OSPM!

Slice Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Don't mix ACPI names and PCI names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
