Thanks also to you and PMHeart, but you are really amazing making tests!

You know, it's fun to make any test with Enoch, and happy to have good news that Chameleon is still working for new macOS.

Please keep alive with 10.13,..... and 10.19. :D :D :thumbsup_anim: :thumbsup_anim:

Hi, i have an question about your usage of you set KernelPm to Yes

You have an Intel® Core2 Duo CPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz , i use an Quad Q8550 and have set KernelPm to No (default).

 

Should we set KernelPm to yes in the kernel.plist (like you)?

Has this some advantage for Core Duo oder Core Quad cpus or only needed for newer Intels or AMDs?

 

I also generate C/P States like you - no probs so far.

yep 2848 is published

 

Again thx Micky1979 and all the tester for the update.

 

ErmaC

Thanks for this new Enoch r.2848 which worked perfectly for Z97 hackintosh with GTX-980 & Intel HD 4600.

The great news for me is working all audio (ALC-1150, DP audio from HD 4600, & HDMI audio from GTX-980) again !

Just one bug which does not present by Clover r.3998 in NVIDIA Driver manager as attached photos:

Although Nvidia Web Driver were loaded, it showed OS X Default Graphics Driver was used in NVIDIA Driver manager.

Thanks and can you fix it as soon as possible ?

The shown Nvidia Web vs OS X default drivers in the Nvdia Prefpane is only an cosmetic problem.

So, an fix is not really needed. Emulating real NVRAM maybe to much work or not possible to implement that in chameleon.

kextstat (in terminal) shows which driver are really loaded/used.

Thanks and I understand it's not easily fully fixed yet.

Enoch with kexts patcher?

 

Hi guys, I made some code to patch kernel extensions with Enoch + my own parser for a new configuration file called kexts.plist

Right now is only able to patch kexts loaded from the filesystem, i.e. from E/E, /S/L/E and /L/E using -f or UseKernelCache=No, and I'm going to do the same on the prelinkedkernel. To do that I have 2 ways:

 

1) load the prelinked, parse the prelink info part to search addresses, then patch kexts found.

2) patch kexts in the "DecodeMachO" function and be cool.

 

Both are anyway good, will do what I can and if I can. The second option anyway intrest me, and if I made it in a working state I'll port it to Clover to test with... and made a pull request.

 

(Actual code I made can allow us to patch ACPI table also.... but that later.)

 

This is my log that reflect the kexts.plist attached:

The structure of the plist is simple:

 

AppleRTCPatch = Yes/No  (boolean or string) 

OrangeIconFixSata = Yes/No  (boolean or string)

TrimEnablerSata = Yes/No  (boolean or string)

AICPMPatch = Yes/No  (boolean or string)

 

(---> yes, now you can do bool values using the native tag "<false/>"  or "<true/>"  ... also I think in o.c.b.p, kernel.plist etc.  :D)

These are overridable at command line, as always.

 

To patch kexts on your own instead you have to made an array of dictionary named as the kext you want to patch (without extensions) and can contains this setting

  • Find    hex code/base64 under Data tag 
  • Replace  hex code/base64 under Data tag 
  • Comment   optional string containing what you are attempting to do with the relative patches.
  • MatchOS optional string containings a string of OSes separated by comma (or only one OS w/o comma) you want to load this patch.
  • MatchBuild optional string containing the ProductBuildVersion string of macOS. If the string contains your macOS build version the patch will be activated, not otherwise

mostly like Clover, but without the 'Name' entry because as I said is the name of the array that contains all its patches! 

<key>AppleHDA</key>
  <array>
      <dict> 
          <key>MatchBuild</key> 
          <string>15G1004 16D32 or what you have</string> 
          <key>MatchOS</key> <string>10.7.x,10.8.x,10.9.x,10.10.x,10.11.x,10.12.x</string>
          <key>Comment</key> <string>Patching 11d4198b with 111d76e0 codec (patched by AppleHDA Patcher.app)</string> 
          <key>Find</key> 
          <data>ixnUEQ==</data>
          <key>Replace</key> 
          <data>4HYdEQ==</data> 
      </dict>
  </array>

Also, you can add an array of strings called 'ForceToLoad' containing the name of the kext(s) you want to load:

        <key>ForceToLoad</key>
	<array>
		<string>AppleHDA</string>
	</array>

NOTE: this assume the kext is some where in /E/E, /S/L/E or /L/E and is not granted the OS will load it. But at least is loaded by the bootloader.

later, for an effective work this will require to patch the Info.plist of the kext involved.

 

New code, new bugs, please help in testing, boot file attached!

 

EDIT

Later will extend Find/Replace capabilities to kernel.plist  ;)
