I don't know if this helps you guys, but the device that Clover was started from is available from the Clover bootlog. The Clover bootlog is available from ioreg.

 

Note:

SPEEDY-NUC:~ rehabman$ bdmesg|grep SelfDevicePath
0:100  0:000  SelfDevicePath=PciRoot(0x0)\Pci(0x1D,0x0)\Pci(0x0,0x0)\Sata(0x0,0xFFFF,0x0)\HD(1,GPT,720CCE1B-927B-4261-9ED9-4126654A36CA,0x28,0x64000) @84486018

Is not it a device where clover found config.plist?

So I'm pretty sure that we need to do something before SIGTERM as joevt is saying in #11984. What I found is that we can't actually mount on SIGTERM, which is why it's bugging out.

rEFItBlesser is a solution for rEFIt that does a similar thing - mount the EFI partition at shutdown. It is a Startup Item as described at:

https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPSystemStartup/Chapters/StartupItems.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/10000172i-SW9-CJBBHDII

 

I made some changes for rEFInd which seemed to work when I used it but I haven't used it recently. Startup Items are deprecated but I think they still work. Anyway, if the rEFItBlesser script works, then maybe it can help with this save_nvram_plist problem. You'll probably want to remove any part that uses the bless command, and just test the disk mounting feature (the if statement after the "mounted=0" line). Note that it uses "mount" instead of "df" to get a list of mount points. It also doesn't use diskutil. It uses /Users/Shared because other folders may not have permission?

 

The difference between a Startup Item and a Daemon is that a Startup Item defines dependencies. I think this is all handled by launchd, which you can look at the source code. Maybe the relevant parts could be converted to a Daemon.

It indicates the partition from which Clover was started by BIOS.

And, yes... also the location of config.plist (Clover always loads the configuration from the same partition it was booted from).

I haven't checked. It doesn't matter. The take away here is that Clover can put any information we want there. If the information does not include the location of Clover, than Clover can be changed to add that. If device path is not usable by Mac OS X, Clover could add the partition GUID (either from GPT or from the filesystem).

 

To learn if device path is useable in Mac OS X, we should learn what kind of device paths the bless command creates, and how it does that.

 

We should make a routines that can be used in Mac OS X that can convert a device path between hex and text like GfxUtil but which can handle all cases as defined by EFI_DEVICE_PATH_TO_TEXT_PROTOCOL and EFI_DEVICE_PATH_FROM_TEXT_PROTOCOL. I think all the source code for this is in the UefiDevicePathLib folder of EDK2. GfxUtil only implements 2 device path node types, pci and acpi. UefiDevicePathLib has 44 others.

In the case of legacy boot there are two different partitions:

1. Where MBR, PBR and file BOOT are located.

2. Where CloverX64.efi and config.plist are located.

They can be different.

Yes, I don't use legacy boot, so my comments apply to UEFI only.

Even in the legacy scenario, it is best if #1 and #2 are the same (ESP).

 

I'm not a fan of a "legacy root" install of Clover, I would assume in the "legacy root" scenario you would still store nvram.plist in partition indicated by SelfDevicePath (likely the only possibility).

i added old models in platformdata.c. Some have changed to the correct data.

platform data add models.zip

 

added list

  MacBookPro1,2

  MacBookPro5,2

  MacBookPro5,4

  MacBookPro11,4

  MacBookAir3,2

  MacMini5,2
  MacMini5,3
  iMac4,2
  iMac5,2
 
No more models are missing. Clover has all the information from Apple to models using Intel cpu to the current model now.
 
if you don't trust, search board-id, you can see added info in web site(geekbench, apple site, kernel panic log)
 
tested build in latest r3964.
 
test report nvram from r3964
brightness load is good after reboot. nvram save in efi partition root. 2nd boot, nvram save in mac hdd root. but unhide. i see unhide code in rc script. will it be hide?
and already report, not include christmas theme in pkg. when install clover pkg, remove christmas install option(automately) or need to add christmas theme in pkg.
 
thank you.

To learn if device path is useable in Mac OS X, we should learn what kind of device paths the bless command creates, and how it does that.

The file /src/edk2/Clover/rEFIt_UEFI/Platform/Nvram.c seems to suggest that there could be some differences between the device paths created by bless (or Startup Disk Preferences panel) and by EFI. There are special compare functions in that file to compare these device paths. This might not be as easy as I thought. Maybe it's possible for Clover to add a device property to the device that contained Clover, then a script in macOS can search for that property in the entire IO Registry without having to compare device paths.

we can’t smbios file after MacBookAir6,1 but we can find fact. both MacBook8,1 and MacBookPro12,1 use Broadwell and used Type “Laptop”. 

MacBookAir6,1 has Haswell. Haswell model use Type “Notebook”, and MacBookAir7,1 use Broardwell.

as result, we can enough guess MacBookAir7,1 type is “Laptop”.

iMac17,1 use Skylake cpu. iMac16,1 use broadwell cpu. according to apple used type pattern above, both 17,1 and 16,1 have type. as result, Type “Laptop”

15,1 use Haswell. We can get fact from Macbookpro and Macbookair. haswell and under cpu, use same type. as result, we can get Type “All In One”

imac16,1 imac16,2 imac17,1 gSettings.Mobile      = False;.

because it not use mobile cpu. you can see what i did.

 

Clover Configurator and Clover CCE have wrong information of Chassis. We need to support them from Apple's smbios data.

You are missing MacBook8,2 SMBios data LOL. So not full.  :P

I can get a little like board-id etc. But not all. Anyway hope this may help you?

Others like BoardManufacturer should be absolutely Apple. Don't want to tell.  ;)

Oops. Why... But here it's MB82 with the board-id above.

Edit: Ah no. I think syscl is wrong. But in Pike's ssdtPRGen.sh, there's still MacBook8,2 but with a different board-id. (https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh/blob/Beta/Data/Models.cfg#L95) It's Mac-F305150B0C7DEEEF.plist

And yes. Mac-473D31EABEB93F9B is MBP13,1. Sorry my error.

it's wrong. did you search board-id? you just tell me syscl's smbios. he used combined smbios data.

syscl smbios combination list

bios version - macbook9,1 data

familiy - macbook

productname - macbook8,2

board-id - macbookpro13,1

 

already not match.

 

give me official macbook8,2 information.

already not match.

 

give me official macbook8,2 information.

Ah no... Yes I see syscl uses a combined SMBios data. But Pike mentioned MB82 and here is one more. (https://gist.github.com/rtrouton/e6cf0f4064aea52fac2e5116c4b05f2e#file-gistfile1-txt-L9)

Strangely. I cannot get any info about MB82 but it seems to exist.

thank you for information.

we never see Mac-F305150B0C7DEEEF information in web, geekbench, everymac, etc. apple just add this board-id. they not use this board-id when release macbook8,x.

if any information is exist, It should of course be added. but exist only board-id. at least, have to exist bios version or official specs in everymac.

 

have a nice day :)

Yes. Some board-ids are existing but they may not be released. You can check /S*/L*/E*/IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext/C*/PlugIns/X86PlatformPlugin.kext/C*/Resources.

But... Why Pike and rtrouton said it's MB8,2...

Hi. I found iMac13,3 SMBios data from Pike's Revoboot Fork. It's a special-designed model for education early 2013.

The data can be found at https://github.com/Piker-Alpha/RevoBoot/blob/clang/i386/libsaio/smbios/model_data.h#L82

 

And also. It seems that there's multiple board-id for iMac17,1. They are divided by different configurations.

 

One more... Why use 'iMac17,1' here instead of 'iMac'... Apple's specifications? ( https://sourceforge.net/p/cloverefiboot/code/3967/tree//rEFIt_UEFI/Platform/platformdata.c#l494 )

 

Thanks in advance.

I made it based on everymac site.

thank you for imac13,3 and other models info from revoboot. i will search more details.

 

 

yeah. imac17,1 has multiple board-id also exist only model name imac17,1. we can choose one. i don't touch board-id that clover use 17,1 board-id select long time ago.

 

family name reason here

 

 

 
System Information
Manufacturer: Apple Inc.
Product Name: iMac17,1
Version: 1.0
Serial Number: XXXXXXXXXXXX
UUID: XXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
Wake-up Type: Power Switch
SKU Number:  
Family: iMac17,1
 

 

some models don't use Family name any Mac names. ex macbookpro model. it causes many confusion.

you can check what i said by checking smbios data of apple models.

Thanks. But the Family should be 'iMac' instead of 'iMac17,1'? Clover now using 'iMac17,1'...

The 'Product Name' should be 'iMac17,1' but Family should be 'iMac'... Just like other iMac models?

Anyway. I'd like to know why Clover specially set the 'Family' of iMac17,1 to 'iMac17,1' but not iMac...

At first I thought iMac was the name of the family. However, when I checked the smbios data, the familiy name was iMac17,1. On top of that I wrote the facts.
 
Some macbookpro models had strange names without the word mac at all. So, I suggested some degree of unification. If we do not unify, we need to check the smbios data for all models, and we can not get the data from the internet.

Your code above on iMac17,1 is 'Product Name', not 'Family'. I think the 'Product Name' should be 'iMac17,1' (This is correct.) and 'Family' should be 'iMac'. (Not 'iMac17,1')

Also. I saw in Clover Configurator, the 'Family' is 'iMac'. May be not correct.
