A Python script for macOS that discovers and maps USB ports on a system, working around macOS's 15-port-per-controller limit. It generates a custom injector kext so all physical USB ports function at their correct speeds.

Use cases

  • map usb ports on hackintosh
  • fix usb 3 ports only running at usb 2 speeds in macos
  • create custom usb injector kext without USBInjectAll
  • work around macos 15 port limit
  • generate USBMap.kext for my motherboard
  • rename xhci controller via acpi for usb mapping

When to choose

  • you're building or maintaining a Hackintosh and need all USB ports working
  • you want a USBInjectAll-free, system-specific USB mapping kext
  • you need to map XHCI, EHCI, OHCI, or UHCI controllers including AMD chipsets

When to avoid

  • you're on Linux or Windows - the mapping process runs in macOS
  • you need USB mapping for a real Mac, which typically doesn't require it
  • you want an automated one-click solution - the process requires manually plugging devices into every port
