Haswell-E 5820k 5930k installation guide with full speedstep working

stinga11 · December 5, 2015

Update 12/12/2015

I have updated the mini guide of USB 3.0 to work with all X99 motherboards. see step 5.B for details.

This guide it was tested with a i7-5820k and Gigabyte Ga-X99-UD3P

First for install Mac OS X 10.11 in our hackintosh we need to disable a usb 3.0 in the bios. Then we need to use a iMac13,2 definition. When the system has finished installing we boot the first time and install clover. Then we go to the EFI partition and changed the VBoxHfs-64.efi with the HFSPlus.efi that we can download in the following site HFSPlus.efi

Ok let get ready for the magic.

1.
Well here is the magic with this CPUID we convert our Haswell-E into a IVY BRIDGE CPU.(For this guide works it is important that don't change the fakecpuid number because IvyBridge is the only processor that works with XCPM the IvyBridge-E doesn't works with XCPM)

	<key>KernelAndKextPatches</key>
	<dict>
		<key>FakeCPUID</key>
		<string>0x0306A0</string>
	</dict>

2.
This arguments is for use XNU Power Management instead AICPM.

	<key>Boot</key>
	<dict>
		<key>Arguments</key>
		<string>-xcpm</string>
	</dict>

3.
Now we can changed the definition to MacPro6,1

	<key>SMBIOS</key>
	<dict>
		<key>ProductName</key>
		<string>MacPro6,1</string>
	</dict>

4.
When you switch to MacPro6,1 definition you may not be able to boot your Hackintosh, because the monitor turns off after the boot process. How to solve this problem? Easy, go to System/Library/Extensions/AppleGraphicsControl.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy.kext/ copy the info.plist to Desktop and change:

<key>ConfigMap</key>
<dict>
    <key>Mac-F60DEB81FF30ACF6</key>
    <string>Config1</string>
</dict>

To

<key>ConfigMap</key>
<dict>
    <key>Mac-F60DEB81FF30ACF6</key>
    <string>none</string>
</dict>

Then replace the original info.plist with the modified version.

5.A
I made a couple of dummy kext for this guide. These kext are to fix the USB, AHCI, LPC and PlatformPlugin. You need to download and put into the /Library/Extensions
X99 USB2.0.zip.zip

5.B

To get all USB3.0 working you need to use this binary patch and download my X99 injector. Put the injector into the /Library/Extensions theX99 USB3.0.zip(NOTE: IF YOU USE THIS KEXT DON'T USE THE KEXTS FROM 5A)

6.
For Haswell-E is necessary to use the VoodooTSCSync.kext, that you put in /Library/Extensions/ (Download VoodooTSCSync.kext)
Open the info.plist of the VoodooTSCSync.kext and edit the IOCPUNumber.

            <key>IOPropertyMatch</key>
            <dict>
                <key>IOCPUNumber</key>
                <integer>11</integer>
            </dict>

7.
The only thing left to do is create a ssdt for our processor.

a. Download the Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh

curl -o ~/ssdtPRGen.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Piker-Alpha/ssdtPRGen.sh/Beta/ssdtPRGen.sh

b. The next step is to set the execute/search bits by entering this terminal command:

chmod +x ~/ssdtPRGen.sh

c. Run the ssdtPRGen.sh for first time.

~/ssdtPRGen.sh -c 2

d. As we are using a FAKE CPUID in our processor the ssdtPRGen.sh doesn't works automatic. so we downloaded the missing information manually and put into the ~/library/ssdtPRGen/Data. You can use the terminal for open the folder.

open ~/library/ssdtPRGen/Data

X99Haswell.cfg.zip

e. Run again the ssdtPRGen.sh using the board-id of iMac14,2 to get C7 state:

~/ssdtPRGen.sh -c 2 -b Mac-27ADBB7B4CEE8E61

Once finished you will have the ssdt.aml on the ~/Library/ssdtPRGen/. Move it to /EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/patched

9.
Download InsanelyRepairPermission and repair and touch with

sudo InsanelyRepairPermission -rt /

Restart your hackintosh.

10.

It's time to know if your motherboard has MSR 0xE2 locked. Download the DarwinDumper run it and when it finished open the BootLog section and look for the MSR 0xE2 section.

MSR 0xE2 is locked, PM patches will be turned on

If you found the same text you need to turn on the KernelPm on clover

	<key>KernelAndKextPatches</key>
	<dict>
		<key>KernelPm</key>
		<true/>
	</dict>

11.
If your motherboard has a 1150 audio chipset I will leave a AppleHDA.kext modified for works after sleep. Remember for this kext works you need to use the DSDT fix and device injection on clover.

		<key>DSDT</key>
		<dict>
			<key>Fixes</key>
			<dict>
				<key>FixHDA_8000</key>
				<true/>
			</dict>
		</dict>

	<key>Devices</key>
	<dict>
		<key>Audio</key>
		<dict>
			<key>Inject</key>
			<string>01</string>
		</dict>
	</dict>

Nice write up, thanks! Though, I still have the same problem I've tried to resolve for weeks. When the box wakes from sleep the cpu will no longer run at full speed. GB scores drop from 26K to 10K. Can anyone else verify this?

Interesting, goes to sleep as a MacPro, wakes up as a Macmini. haha

nmano · December 6, 2015

Nice stinga, now we need USB 3 fixes only..

USB 3 still not work for me.

How to Enable that

How to disable bios

Thank you.

stinga11 · December 6, 2015

I hope I did right

DarwinDumper_2.9.9.1_AMI_X64_3264_Cap_movieuefi.zip

I updated the guide to fix your problem. turn on the KernelPm on clover

stinga11 · December 6, 2015

I did not feel I have a problem outside USB 3

nevertheless I made the change I suggested,and thanks

If you do not turn on the KernelPm on clover, the power management and speedstep does not works.

maleorderbride · December 6, 2015

Is this only speedstep, or Intel Turbo Boost also?

stinga11 · December 7, 2015

yes the turbo boost works too

Balamut · December 7, 2015

Stinga, looks like on Asus x99ws board with 5930k and that cpuid it won't stick to the max cpu but rather jump from 2.6 to 3.56

AsusFreak · December 7, 2015

Stinga, looks like on Asus x99ws board with 5930k and that cpuid it won't stick to the max cpu but rather jump from 2.6 to 3.56

Try 0x0306E4

@stinga11- Could you test 0x0306E0 or 0x0306E4 (IvyBridge-E) in your current setup? Thanks-

Balamut · December 7, 2015

E0 or E4, kernel panic on aicpm. Won't boot without nullcpu

SammlerG · December 7, 2015

For my setup - 5930K and GA UD5 - this does´t work.

When i use 0x0306A0 with -xcpm my cpu speed jumps around, no max. frequency - permanent drops down to 1.2 oder 1.6 GHz....

Using -xcpm with E0 or E4 brings me a kernel panic.

Only workaround for full speed and "little PM" is turn on Bios PM and using nullCPUPM + fakecpuid without -xcpm or kernelPM.

USB 3.0 also works with GA-X99-UD5 Wifi

here are the patches and kexts, for 4 working USB 3.0 ports with MacPro6,1 SMBIOS on Gigabyte GA-X99-UD5.

USB is fully working on the back panel (white and blue one, the 4 blue ports with the LAN ports are 2.0)

Front panel (internal connectors) not tested.

Do the following DSDT patches (HEX) with Clover:
Title
EHC1 to EH01 find 45484331 replace 45483031
EHC2 to EH02 find 45484332 replace 45483032
XHCI to XH01 find 58484349 replace 58483031

and put the kexts in EFI/CLOVER/kexts/10.11

Thx to manor who made this for X99GamingG1 and iMac14,1.

Balamut · December 7, 2015

After some testing this is what I've found;

Cpu: 5930k OC to 4.2 on Asus X99-E WS board.

When using Geekbench the cpu jumps from 2.6 to 3.56, CPU usage never goes above 70%, but with Cinebench I get 100% CPU usage and the line stays right around the line of 3.56, going between 3.0 and 3.56. Also looks like the turbo doesn't work correctly.

But, when I add -x 1 key to ssdt script (this adds XCMP support), I get full turbo, and running Cinebench gets me 3.9-4.2 and almost flatlines.

Look at the screenshot, on the Intel Power Gadget l have Geekbench at the beginning and Cinebench and the end.
On Cinebech #2 is with -x key, and #6 without. This is just with moderate OC to 4.2

The odd thing is Power, according to IPG CPU draws less power then my mouse

On the side note: can anyone help me with tuning Rampagedevs SSDT for X99 boards to Asus X99-E WS?

maleorderbride · December 8, 2015

You don't really need an SSDT anyway. Just add ethernet built-in via clover, as well as HDEF injection.

You saw that clover works on an x99-e ws now, right?

Balamut · December 8, 2015

Yeah, Clover been working with X99-e ws since 10.10.3. The problem was and is 5960x on El Capitan, I end up getting 5930k so I can at least use the system.

Now only thing left to do is get all the USB ports working and not just 4.

nmano · December 8, 2015

X99 USB3 worked just 1 kext FULL supported.

Set Bios 6.1 or 14.1

and DSDT patch too.

imsobored · December 9, 2015

5820k here with a Gigabyte UD3 motherboard.

Seems like the SSDT is causing my USB Sound Card to boot really really late. System boots up fine, power management and speed step work fantastically. Just can't get my Apogee Duet2 to power up when the system does.

SammlerG · December 9, 2015

Hi,

since the 10.11.2 Update my system works without the VoodooTSCSync.kext.

I cleaned the kext and system caches and bootet again without the VoodooTSCSync.kext, and my system is up and running

VoodooTSCSync has not been necessary since 10.10.3.

However, it was required for wake from sleep. I assume that your wake from sleep work since you have speedstep and turbo working? Does it?

SammlerG · December 10, 2015

no, speedstep or turbo only working buggy with 5930k, and sleep worked with Gigabyte X99-UD5 not 100%. Computer does sleep,

but the after wakeup my board does not boot to AA or A2 (signal LED on Motherboard), it boot´s only to 73.

Working was possible, but after the next shutdown... system powered up itself and booted again. So i don´t use sleep.

And before 10.11.2 my system crashed without using VoodooTSCSync. Don´t know why...

macandrea · December 17, 2015

Thank you!! Working great for me on an i7 5820k - ASUS X99/A 3.1 - both Speedstep and USB.

Am I the only one getting random reboots since 10.11.1? No issues at all on 10.11 or 10.10.x. I am now installing 10.11.3 beta, hope it gets better...
