USB4 Systems Support OS Capabilities for USB

  • Artikel

Verifies that USB4 systems support OS capabilities for USB.

Description

Systems with USB4 host routers must support _OSC for USB capabilities (UUID: 3A0D13A-26AB-486C-9C5F-0FFA525A575A) in platform scope, as per ACPI 6.4 (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) specification - ACPI specification 6.4 documentation (uefi.org)) specification, section 6.2.11.3 Operating System Capabilities for USB. The system must always grant control for USB tunneling, DisplayPort tunneling and inter-domain USB4 Internet Protocol upon the _OSC execution by OS for software configuration manager to function normally.

Should the platform choose to disable USB4 PCIe tunneling, it must do so by setting PCI Express tunneling to zero when the _OSC method is executed.

USB capabilities must remain unchanged for a boot session.
