SSDT or clover patch to disable super I/O (serial port) on GIGABYTE Z390 M GAMING

[mattystonnie]

I have also attached my UIA SSDTs, as well as the codeless kext Hackintool generates.

EDIT: If I were to use the port limit removal patch, I would have HS 01 - 14, SS01 - 10, USR1, and USR2

EDIT #2 There is a mistake present in Hackintool. I forgot to change the connector type for HS02/SS02 to USB-C switched (Connector type 9). I think this is reflected in my SSDT though.

IOUSBHOSTDEVICE is a bluetooth device or a usb dongle?

Negative; it's just the hub from my primary display

Do you have an iPhone or iPad?

If you know which ports you want to disable, the easiest way to do it is to:

Extract SSDT from Clover.
Edit the SSDT for USB.
IF you wan to disable HS09, change this:

    If (LGreaterEqual (NHSP, One))
    {
        Scope (\_SB.PCI0.XHC.RHUB.HS09)
        {
            Method (_UPC, 0, NotSerialized)  // _UPC: USB Port Capabilities
            {
                If (LEqual (H1TC, Zero))
                {
                    If (LEqual (And (UMAP, One), One))
                    {
                        Return (GUPC (One))
                    }
                    Else
                    {
                        Return (GUPC (Zero))
                    }
                }
                Else
                {
                    Return (\_SB.UBTC.RUCC (H1CR, One))
                }
            }

To this:

    If (LGreaterEqual (NHSP, One))
    {
        Scope (\_SB.PCI0.XHC.RHUB.HS09)
        {
            Method (_UPC, 0, NotSerialized)  // _UPC: USB Port Capabilities
            {
                If (LEqual (H1TC, Zero))
                {
                    If (LEqual (And (UMAP, One), One))
                    {
                        Return (GUPC (Zero))
                    }
                    Else
                    {
                        Return (GUPC (Zero))
                    }
                }
                Else
                {
                    Return (\_SB.UBTC.RUCC (H1CR, One))
                }
            }

The above example is how my Gigabyte Z390 motherboard looks. For Asus, it might be even easier. Please see this post for Asus instructions.

I didn't know about this thread.... he was close but not the correct one.

Negative; it's just the hub from my primary display

Place them into Clover/ACPI/Patched , replace the DSDT again, the new one has USBX (usb power) in it.

At the Clover boot screen hit Space bar and block kexts from loading usbinjectall, usb.kext then you push "O" Options and in the Clover menu find SSDT UIAC - SSDT EC - SSDT USBX and drop them, next you boot and check IORegistry and send me a copy.

If you get native usb working then you will have to delete the marked files from above from Clover folder.

Unfortunately it did not work; I can see HS01 -14, and SS01. While SS01 does run at 10Gbps, all USB ports show up as internal.

Rebuit kext cache and reboot.

Unfortunately nothing has changed; I think I'm missing a config.plist setting (I want to say it was a drop table)

Replace the SSDT-USB. aml with this new one, different approach.

Clover check auto merge.
