RehabMan Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Rehabman, I did some research, found your post about bluetooth firmware upload, and it looks like my GMYLE USB Bluetooth is by CSR not Broadcom. It seems to work ok when it's in a USB 3.0 port, just acts a little funny on USB 2.0. I'm not familiar with that BT hardware (using Broadcom here), but not surprising given the USB drivers are all new... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JorgeRod Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Does anyone using a FL1100 card have the speed and current information visible in System Profiler? I've been working a little on my card, trying to get rid of some console errors.[/quote Hello Riley. Were you able to view the speed for your card? I just installed a FL1100 card and I have the same situation. I know that there have been a lot of issues related to the new USB kexts in 10.11, but I was hoping to get normal after installing this card.

If someone could run DarwinDumper on a nMP running 10.11 that might provide some clues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tluck Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 @Riley - strange. i have a FL1100 PCIexpress card in my laptop. i am not seeing anything weird in the logs. it is using the stock/unmoddified USB kexts. i am traveling the next fews days without the card tho. so i cant provide any more info until friday. but it just shows up as USB 3 in system info ... but here isn't any speed or current info list (as compared to the built-in USB2 ports.)

JorgeRod Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Nothing new to report on this yet. If someone could run DarwinDumper on a nMP running 10.11 that might provide some clues. The USB 3 devices connected to the Inateck FL1100 card are recognized and work well, and when connected prior to booting don't generate KPs. The only strange thing is the missing speed information. I tried testing speed using Black Magic and AJA system test tools under both Yosemite and Capitan noting no difference under both OS versions in the results for both ext HDDs connected to the card. What would be an acceptance test result in terms of speed? Is there a better tool that can be used to test speed in these ports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I haven't had any KPs with devices on the FL1100 card. The issues I'm having in 10.11 are purely cosmetic. I'd like to see how devices plugged into a 10.11 nMP show up in System Profiler just to see if they display the speed and current information. The lack of that info here might be a bug with the new USB stack or it may be due to the ports being on a PCIe card. As for speed testing, those two programs you used are the most common so I'd trust what they say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schot Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Hey everyone, got my USB3 working very well in my Hackintosh.... But.......... Does anybody has an idea how to get my NEC USB3 PCIe card working on my MacPro3,1? I tried some stuff and got it working with a dummy kext, only problem... works on USB1 speed.... How to get it work on USB3 speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I was looking around the iMac 17,1 firmware update that came with the last 10.11.2 beta and extracted the DSDT and XHCI tables. Just posting them here in case they might be of any help. @schot: I don't think there's a way to get third-party USB3 chipsets working in El Capitan yet. Maybe as the drivers mature or the source code is released for the new USB stack. 171.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monq Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Why exactly shouldn't I just use the USBInjectAll kext? https://bitbucket.org/RehabMan/os-x-usb-inject-all/downloads I read it enables all ports and then you are supposed to use it to know what ports your system has, but I installed the kext and all ports just work, so why even bother with the second part?

It really depends a lot on the specific hardware you have. Using the port limit patch is probably not a good idea, except for short-term use. Not sure what you mean by "the second part".

The posts following the related link provided in the USBInjectAll README explain. The second part = configuring and using the injectors. Advantages: - eliminate ports not used - avoid port limit patch - power savings due to unused ports being shutdown (mostly a laptop concern) - customizing UsbConnector value to match the hardware Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My computer has only six physical ports and all of them work with that patch. I also don't have any USB 3.0 devices so I don't care if my USB 3.0 ports are throttled somehow. It's a desktop so I don't care about energy (not being able to sleep because I use an ATI is worse, to be honest). So I guess I can disregard this...

USBInjectAll will inject 20 ports. Your 6 USB3 ports are actually 12 (USB2 pins + USB3 pins in each USB3 port). With only 12 ports, you can certainly create an injector that includes only the 12 necessary. You can do what you want... it is your computer, your risk.

WinstonAce Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I'm using the limit remove patch for few weeks now and it works flawlessly. Don't see why I should go for injector/acpi solution. There were unproved assumptions by Rehabman and others (which I respect) regarding problems that may rise due to internal tables limit. There is no evidence that there is a basis for this "fear".

Problem is: pretty much impossible to prove the patch is safe without source code. Since patch is not necessary at all, best practice is to avoid.

WinstonAce Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Well, I guess you can never be too careful but for me, few weeks of using the computer with dozens of usb transfers is enough to be quiet. it's not a "hard" proof, but after sometime it will be empirical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently Apple has not released this information yet. Eventually Apple will but not sure when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heretic99 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 The port needs to be marked as correct type... Clearly one is marked as an external port the other internal (UsbConnector=255 is internal). sorry i didn't explain it very well. i have a usb key 16gb ... connected in one hub in disk utility is internal usb ( Wrong ) an in the other hub is external usb drive ( right ) and the most annoying is the reset of all usb after wake up .. all usb storage will unmounted ....

Not sure what you're asking. A hub is a hub. A USB stick is a storage device... they are different things, and have different drivers. I'm not sure what you mean by "one hub in disk utility". Disk Utility does not list USB hubs. and the most annoying is the reset of all usb after wake up .. all usb storage will unmounted .... It is a very common hack problem. There are some scripts around that will unmount/re-mount across sleep (using SleepWatcher). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to look at ioreg to see what port it is connected to. It sounds like you have the first 4 ports you mention marked as internal (255), and the 5/6 ports marked as normal USB ports (likely either 0 or 3). If your ports are defined incorrectly, you can correct them in the port injector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
