Aldaro Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I followed RehabMan's guide for creating an SSDT for my USB ports, and while all specified ports seem to be injected correctly, I am having numerous issues with power management. I am getting the usual errors like "device using too much power" and "connect accessory to port on your Mac". When I look at system profiler, USB, I notice that a number of devices report a power requirement of 0 mA (which is of course incorrect). I disassembled my DSDT, and noticed that the device h_EC had a method STA that returned zero, which, as far as I know, means that device is unused as per ACPI specification. I created a simple SSDT-EC, as well as SSDT-USBX to try to inject power properties, and while the EC device seems to load in IOreg, I am not having any luck in getting this to work correctly. What am I missing? SSDT-UIAC // SSDT-UIAC-ALL.dsl // // This SSDT can be used as a template to build your own // customization for USBInjectAll.kext. // // This SSDT contains all ports, so using it is the same as without // a custom SSDT. Delete ports that are not connected or ports you // do not need. // // Change the UsbConnector or portType as needed to match your // actual USB configuration. // // Note: // portType=0 seems to indicate normal external USB2 port (as seen in MacBookPro8,1) // portType=2 seems to indicate "internal device" (as seen in MacBookPro8,1) // portType=4 is used by MacBookPro8,3 (reason/purpose unknown) // DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 2, "hack", "_UIAC", 0) { Device (_SB.USBX) { Name (_ADR, Zero) // _ADR: Address Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized) // _DSM: Device-Specific Method { If (!Arg2) { Return (Buffer (One) { 0x03 // . }) } Return (Package (0x08) { "kUSBSleepPortCurrentLimit", 0x0834, "kUSBSleepPowerSupply", 0x13EC, "kUSBWakePortCurrentLimit", 0x0834, "kUSBWakePowerSupply", 0x13EC }) } } Device(UIAC) { Name(_HID, "UIA00000") Name(RMCF, Package() { "8086_a36d", Package() { "port-count", Buffer() { 26, 0, 0, 0 }, "ports", Package() { "HS01", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 1, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "HS02", Package() { "UsbConnector", 9, "port", Buffer() { 2, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "HS03", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 3, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "HS04", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 4, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "HS05", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 5, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "HS06", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 6, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "HS07", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 7, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "HS08", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 8, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "SS01", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 17, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "SS02", Package() { "UsbConnector", 9, "port", Buffer() { 18, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "SS04", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 20, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "SS05", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 21, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "SS06", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 22, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "SS07", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 23, 0, 0, 0 }, }, "SS08", Package() { "UsbConnector", 3, "port", Buffer() { 24, 0, 0, 0 }, }, }, }, }) } } //EOF SSDT-EC // Inject Fake EC device DefinitionBlock("", "SSDT", 2, "hack", "EC", 0) { Device(_SB.EC) { Name(_HID, "EC000000") } } //EOF The specs for my hack are as follows: Mobo: GIGABYTE Z390 M GAMING - UEFI vF8 CPU: Intel core i5 9600k RAM: 4x 8GB sticks of Crucial Ballistic DDR4 clocked at 2666 MHz GPU: MSI AMD Radeon RX 580 w/ 8GB vram NIC: Intel i210 - I got this, because I wanted something that was natively supported by macOS, as well as having one less additional kext to worry about Storage 2x Samsung 970 EVOs (500GB) and Intel 660p 512GB.
