I've got 2 USB2 connectors and 2 USB3 connectors on the front of my computer.
Would it create a problem to delete the corresponding HSxx port for the USB3 connectors (in the dsl), so that only the SSxx ports of USB3 ports would be defined? This would make it very easy to keep under the 15 port limit.
It might cause problems. No idea really as I have never tested in that scenario.
And of course, those ports would then only work with USB3 devices. USB2 devices will not work because the USB2 pins on the port are not active.
One other question. Let's say the dsl contains > 15 USB ports. Can the uia_exclude in Clover be used to safely remove them?
Yes.
Using uia_exclude is the same as excluding the ports from the SSDT.
I was thinking that if > 15 ports were instantiated even momentarily before Clover excluded them,
Clover doesn't exclude anything. All work is done in USBInjectAll.kext.
