[Guide] Creating a Custom SSDT for USBInjectAll.kext

[pinktank]

*Solved at #3150 To update, I tried downgrading my bios to 1.2(original release) which solves the usb eject issue, but this introduced a new problem, USB2.0 devices populate both HXC(SS/HS) ports, creating 22 ports total. There is also the USR1 that gets simultaneously populated by some devices. The Rubber 3.0 device is the USB3.0 one, g600 and i1display are USB2.0.

It wakes to a coma from sleep and can only be turned back on by holding power button down to kill it and booting from scratch. It woke up once on the first boot (unsure how) but won't anymore. It also keeps the blinking power led of sleep forever, as in after post as well. Coming back from sleep had solved it that once but another coma put it right back to always blinking. I tried with my old SSDT-UIAC to no avail.

How do I prune them, do I just get rid of the extra SS ports that the usb2.0 devices map to and keep only the SS that showed up when I plugged in a usb device? Likewise for the HS? You can see in the usbmap screenshot

Here's a link to ioreg, dsdt, efi folders. The EFI contains a ssdt-uiac but is disabled as I wasn't sure it would map after the bios update. The screenshot is with limit removal + EC/USBX patches.

*Further Update #1
Updating the bios to beta 1.21 (from shortly after the release of the motherboard, original being 1.20) fixes sleep and wakeup, and USB devices appear like they did with Bios 2.5 Where SS06 => HS11 in terms of plugging usb2 and usb3 in the same drive. Unfortunately, it also brings back the eject issue. I got ACPI dumps and Ioreg copies saved for 1.20 and 1.21 thinking maybe it would help solve the usb eject issue in the future since the only difference between them is small bios wise. Mainly visible in osx is that HS and SS ports match in number for the same port

 

[pinktank]

As promised here are two zip files, each containing ACPI dumps and Ioreg for BIOS 1.20 and 1.21 for the Asrock z270 ITX, though the change is supposed to be minute, the 1.20 did not have the usb-eject issue while 1.21 does, perhaps someone can figure out a difference we can patch? In 1.20, HS SS numbers match for the same port, in 1.21 they do not.

*update: plot thickens. Updated back to 2.5, and if I set the ram to run 2133mhz(rather than 3200 which it is XMP specced at), the machine wakes up with one click instead of two and does not eject drives. If I set it to say 2533 however, it does not! Set it back to 2400, it works. What is going on?

FINAL UPDATE
After years, I have sleep working, usb drives not ejecting, and usb ports all mapped. Two lessons:
1) Perhaps it is by CPU spec, but usb eject and double click to wake is solved by dropping memory speed (7700k is 2400mhz, so I set it to that and lowered latency)
2) When you make your SSDT-UIAC, don't change the port numbers or the total number of ports that come in the SSDT-UIAC-ALL template, this was causing conflicts in my setup.

My final question. The system works as noted above, except when I boot with my monitor (hardware calibration + built in usb 3.0 hub, EIZO CS2420). If I boot with the monitor plugged in, it auto-wakes from sleep without the display and ejects drives. Any ideas? If I boot with the monitor in rather than plug it after, it mounts it to a HS port rather than a SS port as it should and I screenshotted below.

Below is what the hub device looks like in IOreg. Here's my ssdt-uiac

Here's what the log looks like if I put it to sleep and it auto-wakes up with usb hub(display) plugged in. It doesn't always auto-wake, just sometimes. Pmset -g below as well

Please assist, have done the mapping correctly and applied the SSDT-UIAC.aml patch.

Rebooting still shows all the ports like my boot flag is still set to -uia_ignore_rmcf. I have removed the boot flag, but all ports including the ones NOT used are still listed both in IORegistryExplorer and Hackintool.

Why is that ?

Mark resolved !!

Edit USBInjectAll.kext/Content/info.plist
Search for entry: MacBookPro15,2
Copy and paste (duplicate) all sections mark as MacBookPro15,2
Rename the pasted entries to MacBookPro15,3

Now only my active ports are showing in IOREG. see here:

Hello,

what should I do if I only have HSxx and no SSxx entries? The ports of connector type 0x3 only work with USB2.0 devices (Mouse/Keyboard) while I can only use my USB3.0 drives on 0x0 with slower speed. I attached my problem reporting files below. What would be approach to this getting to work? Hardware in Signature (Desktop #2)

Thanks in advance

used USBInjectAll + port limit patch then did usb mapping. Works fine now

Hello,

I just finished setting up Catalina on my PC. I wanted to move forward and creat a custom ssdt for my USB ports to avoid future problems. There's no USB limits patch applied on my system atm.

My XHC controller behave normally OOB even in IOregisteryexplorer.

My EH01 and EH02 "behave normally" I had few times my mouse turn off I had to switch port and it's the reason I wanted to map my USB ports also because I want to make sure they fonction correctly to add a WIFI Bluetooth pcie card that requires to be connected to a usb 2.0 internal port.

However while doing the port discovery steps I found my self stuck in the process because IORgisteryExplorer return this on my EH01 and EH02. I repeat the port are "working normally" without any patch (see EFI folder attached) but with just these USB 2.0 port I have 15 ports + 8 port on the XHC 23 total I don't understand why they are working if the limit is 15 and I wanted to fix EH01 EH02 to prevent future trouble.

Since they aren't any numbers ex. (HS01@XXX) I'm not sure how to proceed from this point.

I tried searching forum/guides on the internet but nothing comes up similar to this or I haven't found it.
IF someone could point me in the right direction for the next step that would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there.

Don't worry that IORegistryExplorer shows HSP01 instead of HS01. That's just the way ASUS have set things up.

The reason your EH01/EH02 ports look the way they do, is because PR01 on each is a single port carrying a "hub". So as far as the 15-limit is concerned there are just 2x USB ports, not the 14x you might expect..

I understand why they look like that now! Thanks! Is it still worth it to make a custom ssdt in my situation?

Hi guys,
ASRock Z370 Extreme 4 here. Unfortunately It seems I'm not able to inject the USB ports. I only see the USB 2.0. No USB 3.0 showing.
I have Catalina 10.15.2 installed, applied the 2 USB Port Limit patches required via CC, I have USBInjectAll in my kext/Other Folder along with XHCI-unsupported on the EFI.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
