okay bestie, welcome to JMIDE(4) — the manual page for jmide, and yes we’re gonna get through it together 💖✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

jmide — the JMicron Technology JMB36x PCIe to SATA II/PATA controller driver. It’s giving “hardware wingman” energy, fr fr 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

Lowkey iconic syntax, no cap 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The jmide driver supports the JMicron Technology JMB36x IDE controllers. That’s the main character right there 👑

These PCI-e controllers exist in different flavors — and bestie, they are highly flexible:

  • 1 or 2 PATA Ultra/133 ports and/or 1 or 2 SATA-II ports — mix and match vibes ✨

The SATA ports can be attached to the integrated AHCI controller, or attached to the PCI IDE channels in PATA emulation. And that PATA emulation can be:

  • in either single-drive emulation on each PCI IDE channels, or
  • in master/slave emulation on one of the PCI IDE channels.

When enabled, the AHCI controller can either be on the PCI function 0 or function 2. The PCI IDE controller can also be on either PCI function, and can share the PCI function with AHCI. The jmide driver supports both the AHCI controller and PCI IDE controller in various configurations. It’s flexible like that 🧚💜
