## Finding the ACPI path
|
|
|
|
Finding the ACPI pathing is quite easy actually, first open your decompiled DSDT you got from [Dumping the DSDT](/Manual/dump.md) and [Decompiling and Compiling](/Manual/compile.md) with either maciASL(if in macOS) or any other text editor if in Windows or Linux(VSCode has an [ACPI extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Thog.vscode-asl) that can also help).
|
|
|
|
Next search for `Device (GPI0)`. Should give you a result similar to this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
What we care about from this is the `_STA` method:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)
|
|
{
|
|
If ((GPHD == One))
|
|
{
|
|
Return (0x03)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Return (0x0F)
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
What we want is for this to always return `0x0F` when booting macOS, so we want to make an SSDT that will return `GPHD == Zero` in macOS.
|
|
|
|
**NOTE that you may have the other way around where GPHD needs to be set as `One` to return `0x0F`**. And your device name may also be different, don't throw random SSDTs in thinking it'll work
|
|
|
|
Here's some more examples:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With this example, we can see that we need both `SBRG` and `GPEN` to return `One`. If only one is present, it'll create some issues so in our SSDT we'll want to have both of them return `One`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Edits to the sample SSDT
|
|
|
|
Now that we have our ACPI path, lets grab our SSDT and get to work:
|
|
|
|
* [SSDT-GPI0.dsl](https://github.com/dortania/Getting-Started-With-ACPI/blob/master/extra-files/decompiled/SSDT-GPI0.dsl)
|
|
|
|
From the second example, we'll want to set both GPEN and SBRG to `One` to allow it to operate in macOS:
|
|
|
|
**Before**:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
If (_OSI ("Darwin"))
|
|
{
|
|
GPEN = One <- Proper variables
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Following the example pathing we found, the SSDT should look something like this:
|
|
|
|
**After**:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
If (_OSI ("Darwin"))
|
|
{
|
|
GPEN = One <- Change to the right variables
|
|
SBRG = One <- Change to the right variables
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Compiling the SSDT
|
|
|
|
With the SSDT done, you're now [ready to compile the SSDT!](/Manual/compile.md)
|
|
|
|
## Wrapping up
|
|
|
|
Once you're done making your SSDT, either head to the next page to finish the rest of the SSDTs or head here if you're ready to wrap up:
