Mavericks kernel testing on AMD (formerly Mountain Lion kernel testing on AMD)

[aziiz3]

Can somebody post a screenshot with about this Mac active?

Also the latest kernel should work with Pentium 4 and Atom...

 

 

 

is it enough ?

i'm only using your latest kernel w/o the system.kext & voodoopstates

CPU Unknown?

I need to fix that...

This is my screens with "about this mac" active

 

RC7_kernel

 

BSA_kernel

 

The "???" after the 6GB of Memory isn't the error of kernel (I think) so it is no improtant.

 

I have no pink icons, because I use Launchpad Refresh.app and I forgot to turn it off

But the dirty icon bug is still here.

 

EDIT:

CPU Unknown?

I need to fix that...

But maybe "???" is the bug of kernel, can you fix that?

After 6 GB "???" - it is only from chameleon !

I revised the kernel some more.

Right now I tested it on an AMD E1 APU.

The kernel contains both my tsc.c and cpuid.c mods as well as Bronzovka's

New boot arguments:

-alttsc (Use my procedure to calculate clock frequency, this was needed on the AMD APU)

-altcache (Use my old cache determination procedure enhanced with TLB calculation from Bronzovka, was also needed on the APU or KP).

-emulateintel (Set Core 2 Duo or Intel Xeon E processor data and copy GenuineIntel in).

I also revised the opemu some more (should be faster as it first checks for SSSE3 instruction).

 

No SSE3 emu yet... haven't had the time.

It is next on my list...

 

Please test it and let me know...

 

with both -alttsc and -altcache it runs just like my old kernel... but with Bronzovka's genial other fixes

 

@Bronzovka: I compiled up some info of the APU... we should add that to your cache determination and TSC detection.

thanks for kernel! seem that boot faster..

Please test it and let me know...

Here's my review:

 

+ fsb, busratio & cpu freqs are correctly detected

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+ P-state auto/manual controlling works

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+ with "-emulateintel",

the cpux detects my cpu is an intel xeon cpu

but the geekbench still detects it as an amd

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

now the "minus" list:

 

-  the L2 cache is detected incorrectly 

 

 

 

 

 

compared to the windows' detection

 

 

 

 

 

- pink icons are still there on both launchpad & dashboard

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

-  copy-paste in PREVIEW still doesn't work

 

 

 

 

 

 

- the /utility/GRAB.app  can't capture any windows  (the result is only a blank white shot)

but it can capture both selection & full-screen

 

 

 

 

 

 

- Q-Time X crashes when playing MP4 (h.264) movies

 

 

 

 

here's is the error report:

http://pastebin.com/b6FBUBi2

 

 

 

-  both FIREFOX & SAFARI still crash when playing youtube with adobe flash plugin

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the console reports: "invalid user opcode 64: 34 be db 90 ff 7f 00 00 2b 00 00 00 00 00 00 00"

 

 

 

 

 

-  the maxima works, it can connect to SBCL server

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but it still sends "invalid user opcode 32" to the console

Here comes the About this Mac

 

 

BTW< for dev info, none of the kernel can boot my i3-330M on Dell Vostro

Did you try the -aticache boot flag to fix the L2 cache?

[m28ew]

Did you try the -aticache boot flag to fix the L2 cache?

 

AnV didn't mention about "-aticache" flag 

 

 

New boot arguments:

-alttsc (Use my procedure to calculate clock frequency, this was needed on the AMD APU)

-altcache (Use my old cache determination procedure enhanced with TLB calculation from Bronzovka, was also needed on the APU or KP).

-emulateintel (Set Core 2 Duo or Intel Xeon E processor data and copy GenuineIntel in).

 

 

testing the kernel with "-altcache"

@ Andy

Here is "About this Mac" Phenom II x4  B50 and machdep:

 

 

I do get a KP on this kernel, "kernel_bsa", when I run Geekbench3 (not in Geekbench2), can't get an image though, I'll see what I can do.

But very happy about the Pink Launchpad gone (for me -5770)

 

Youtube videos on Safari are working well for me, however the QT screen-capture looks garbled:

 

utube.mov

Screen Shot 2013-11-17 at 9.07.23 AM.png

yup! you got the same false reading of the L2 cache compared to this one

 

 

 

 

But very happy about the Pink Launchpad gone (for me -5770)

 

are you running the launchpad reset script on the startup ?

[Bronya]

Yes , i re-search and i found fails in cupid and tsc for family 12h and 14h , family 12h and 14h don't support address 8000_001D, then should work on amd-apu_e1 . 

Wait for kernel without flag -altcache and -alttsc...

[aplIIc]

yup! you got the same false reading of the L2 cache compared to this one

 

are you running the launchpad reset script on the startup ?

 

Yeah, sure enough.... 2x512 is not right! hadn't seen it before!.

 

are you running the launchpad reset script on the startup ?

 

 

That's a negative... NO launchpadreset.app on my 5770  ... beta_kernel from Bronya also was wo/ Pink launchpad errors!   The pink never bothered me much so I never used the reset app... 

[tragediana150]

So maybe the pink launchpad gets because of some kext? Maybe we should try delete some kext and check if still is pink...? hmmm?

Could you upload your Extra folder?

[gils83]

 

Andy kernel works well, there are only png capture which retains the red image, the resolution change are disappearing pink icons QuikTime works well and the "export, Sempron is not a powerful CPU, it is good for dual core Atlon a great step forward ......….

So maybe the pink launchpad gets because of some kext? Maybe we should try delete some kext and check if still is pink...? hmmm?

Could you upload your Extra folder?

 

 

I don't think that it maybe my Kexts... most of them are for functionality:

 

ALXEthernet  -AtherosL1c ether kext

AppleATIATA -ATI Sata (this one maybe superfluous)

DVD_Apple -AnV's Superdrive kext

FakeSMC -fakesmc

corecrypto -patched

PXHCD -USB 3

 

 

Also I have them in S/L/E not in Extra/E

but I am attaching none the less:

 

S_L_ExtandExtra.zip

 

Additionally: though I don't get the Pink Launchpad I get  Errors on screen capture (   utube.mov   3.39MB   2 downloads) and the icon errors as well as Preview Greenness when saving/copying.

Ok, you're right. These kexts are for functionality only. Just thought that you never had problem with pink icons etc, so maybe you use/don't use some kexts.

But thanks a lot man

in E/E good works

I only had problems from rc5 to rc7 (i.e. pink launchpad)... before and after those Launchpad behaves...

 

I attribute it to being MacPro5,1 along with OEM Radeon 5770.

No prob...

Its just a guess though.. 

[tragediana150]

Now installed FakeSMC. No much better, but there is progress...

Maybe flag -blacklist

Actually tragediana you may be somewhat right!! I was doing tests with all of my Kexts (I also had corecrypto -patched) apparently having all of my kexts in S/L/E it fixes Pink Launchpad... you see I do get it but for half a second then they disappear really fast.... but remove all to E/E they remained pink the whole time (10 mins)

 

Thats how it works for me, maybe test it?

 

@DJPhoenix

Careful w/ support stuff guys ?delete the ones you don't need?

have you tried removing:

-ApplePolicyControl

-AppleUpstreamUserClient

-AppleTyMCEDrvr

??

[Andy Vandijck]

Yes , i re-search and i found fails in cupid and tsc for family 12h and 14h , family 12h and 14h don't support address8000_001D, then should work on amd-apu_e1 .

Wait for kernel without flag -altcache and -alttsc...

Yes we need to fix this.

I'll work on this tonight too

[Dans1975]

Hi Tested latest kernel.... still pink launchpad, clock still jumping all over time...

otherwise pretty good!  ; )

 

AMD64X2 3800+ , Nvidia 9400GT, 4 G ram, Nvidia MC61 chipset (2008)

 

 

timing problem causing clock issues??  see Diagnostics messages "exceeded max slew - resetting clock"...

Hi all, maybe it helps, editing process normally (in priview) with jpeg-2000 format, and export again to png .. http://cl.ly/image/2t2T2135022n

[Dans1975]

Didn't install system.kext
