[Guide] Mac OSX 10.12 and 10.13 with X99 Broadwell-E family and Haswell-E family

[Sygey02]

test with X99_Injector USB 3.kext

remove if any dsdt patches in config.plist have.

 

 

When I use this kext  X99_Injector USB 3.kext   all USB ports stops working!

All its loading fine to the login screen but then all USB ports stops working!

 

I don't have any patches in plist, in fact I well provide my CLOVER .......  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0-k2xeTJWWoU1VwZmc5MkM2dDA/view?usp=sharing

 

I want to mention that now I can boot, but just to login info because off usb keyboard won't work

 

Hi! nmano! I used your zip file.  X99_Injector USB 3.kext and now usb its working!

 

​I notes that  with this   AppleALC.kext  my sistem panics and reboot. message  ( sistem uptime nanosecond)

 

when I remove this kext it boots fine!

 

How to make my sound working?

 

I used until now VoodooHDA.kext.  but I have no voice sound on mkv video files just ambient sound or background or effect sound, but no voice

Hi nmano

I get random freezes trouble with xcpm on my sierra 10.12.6,

I can succeed enable xcpm on my Gigabyte x99 phoenix sli mb with e5-1650 v3,but when I logined sierra,it will get freezes after few mintues.

if I disable xcpm,random freezes will not happen.

 

my bios configuration

turbo boost technology - auto

Hyper-Threading thechnology - auto

cpu enhanced halt(c1e) - disable

c3 state support - enable

c6/c7 state support - disable

cpu thermal  monitor - disable

cpu eist function - disable

 

my clover config confguration also update as your lastest config,but still random freezes,I have losted myself with xcpm.

Hey guys looking to build a new system for music production to use Logic Pro x, I.d like to get and Intel Xeon OEM E5-2696 V3 SR1XK 2.3GHz 18Core 145W 45MB LGA 2011-3 Processor CPU from Ebay which is the same cpu as the E5-2699 V3 with an Asus X99A/USB 3.1 mobo  OR Asus X99-A II

 .

What do you think guys?

[nmano]

XCPM

I add some missing data for FrequencyVectors. (ThermalConfiguration,IOPlatformSystemSleepPolicy)

just replace in IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext

its worked well No panic 10.12 and 10.13

change your Frequencies I made 4300

Hi Fabiosun,

 

Sorry for my late reply. It was a busy week at work!

I have attached the clover folder as well as kext output and ioreg.

Could you please take a look what's wrong? The problem is mach.xcpm.mode = 0 no matter what I've done.

 

For the questions you asked me.

1. Yes. It's on 10.12.6 and I only see one P state(18).

2. The C states are enabled.

 

 

------update 1 ----------

 

I just used a patched bios to unlocked the 0xe2.

 

From the appleintelinfo output, I saw this:

MSR_PMG_CST_CONFIG_CONTROL.......(0xE2)  : 0x403

------------------------------------------

 - I/O MWAIT Redirection Enable......... : 1 (enabled, IO read of MSR(0xE4) mapped to MWAIT)

 - CFG Lock............................. : 0 (MSR not locked)

 - C3 State Auto Demotion............... : 0 (disabled/unsupported)

 - C1 State Auto Demotion............... : 0 (disabled/unsupported)

 - C3 State Undemotion.................. : 0 (disabled/unsupported)

 - C1 State Undemotion.................. : 0 (disabled/unsupported)

 - Package C-State Auto Demotion........ : 0 (disabled/unsupported)

 - Package C-State Undemotion........... : 0 (disabled/unsupported)

 

Does it mean the c states not enabled?

 

 

---------update 2-----------

The kernel log shows this :

2017-08-12 10:41:13.750811-0400 0x77a      Default     0x0                  0      kernel: (IOPlatformPluginFamily) X86PlatformShim::sendStepper - Stepper dictionary from plist is NULL!

I'm just so confused.. With the frequencyEdit script, the generated plist file does not contain any stepcontextdict. So how the x86platformshim is suppose to load stepper? Could you check with your working hackintosh, if the [macpro6,1].plist contains stepcontextdict?

 

I'm actually using @nmano 's plist that he attached in last post. It does not contain stepcontextdict either.

 

Hi,

Are you in 10.12.6 and you see only one P states (=18)?

Could you open a terminal window and run kextstat and show the output here when you can?

 

Your ssdt seems fine to me..it similar to mine with your cpu correct data

Also mine was not supported directly and  I have used in past to put it in user.cfg file before pike supported it directlly

 

Other question

Have you enabled in your bios various C states?

 

For our kind of XEON Cpu few think are mandatory

using a correct fakecpuid or broadwell cpu info and xcpm patches

and some patches if your bios is locked

then FV and ssdt should do the job

sorry, I would like to help you better but I miss many information...one of this is your installation method of macOS Sierra :-)

Hi nmano!

I want to thank you once again for your support!

Secondly, I want to mention that the files you patched for me work perfectly.

I apologize for not being able to confirm sooner but I have encountered some problems and it took more time for the tests.

As far as AppleALC is concerned, it works perfectly after changing the id leyout in 0x01

The tricky part is that after installing Nvidia Webdriver, the sound stops working, but it appears to be active in the sound manger.

Do you have any idea what I should do to make AppleALC, Realtek ALC1150, work with the Video Driver installed?

 

Or if anyone here knows what to do? Any advice is welcome.

Here are my files.      https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0-k2xeTJWWodk56WjhDSkVjQzA/view?usp=sharing

[Balamut]

@nmano is that for all cpus or just specific ones?

 

Also that frequency, is that a max Turbo per 1 core or all cores?

[geeti]

Hi geeti

If you have a solid backup

try to completely change your EFI with this one

Also you have to be sure to have frequency vectors injected with pike script

 

Generally you can also see more steps thane one if xcpm=0

but I am confident with these patches you can solve

Very much appreciate. It's working now..

 

One issue left is, in my AppleIntelInfo.data output, the IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS is  0. pikeralpha says it should be [1,15].

Did you have similar issue?

[Nick7502]

Can someone please help me, I cant seem to get my osx to boot correctly anymore. I lost my usb that contained my efi folder. I tried to rebuild the efi folder but it doesn't seem like it wants to boot.

My set up is the i7 MSI x99a in my signature.

[Fergarth]

As always, update to 10.13 beta (17A344b), made through the App Store. All working perfectly on my X-99     

[MMido]

I was working for 4 days trying to understand and fixing this but it's quite hard without some can guide you through your problem so I just decided to ask here maybe someone will help me.

I have a C612 running High Sierra DP7. with dual engineering sample processors E5-2690v4 and VEGA FE
I just wanna know is there any different xnu power management scheme in my case?

I add  FakeCPUID 0x040674 then run FreqEditVectors.sh to inject the missing data. I used one of the plists of the iMac17,1 and I knew it's not recommended to use max turbo patches from okrasit but I just test how the performance will be and it was quite higher on both my CPU and GPU. but the moment I disable the patch the performance drops again. 

 

I also spoke with pikeralpha and he pointed that its not normal to have iMac17,1 but IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS is 5 and not 1 so that doesn’t appear to work, I tried several things to make this work but I couldn't change it to what he suggested.

 

- So I wanna know a couple of things is it my power management looking good?
- what can I actually do to get a better result?

- How I can make IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS be .(0x1B0) : 0x1 (highest performance) ?

 

 

​update: using latest clover r4200 seem to fix the problem now I have A32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS be .(0x1B0) : 0x1 that mean highest performance. but I still struggling to reach my max turbo freq any help will be appreciate it.

 

I add my latest working EFI folder.

Hey nmano can you please take a look at my efi folder and tell me whats ok and whats wrong running an asus x99 aII wint an intel xeon e5-2696 v3 nvidia gt-710.

My issues right now are sometimes my motu usb soundcard gets disconnected and reconnected a few times a day, no C3 state in appleinfo .

check my config.plist add missing data and check  bios setting too.

 

I don't have Asus board 

I have gigabyte.

Hi,@nmano

 

​I tried several solution to have a proper power management with my CPUs. Like Brumbaer's PMDrvr.kext but its not optimized to my motherboard and cpus config, I am always on the high range frequencies even on idle is there anything I can do to enhance the speed stepping of my cpus?

​I am at HS final release and I have a dual Broadwell-EP cpus.

I wanna mention that when I change in the bios the CPU HWPM STATE CONTROL to HWPM OOB MODE I can have a really fantastic CPU power management performance, but I can never reach the max performance even if I used performance fix from oarksit in clover patch section. but when I disable this option in the bios I can reach the highest frequency but with poor power management.

Hi,@nmano

 

​I tried several solution to have a proper power management with my CPUs. Like Brumbaer's PMDrvr.kext but its not optimized to my motherboard and cpus config, I am always on the high range frequencies even on idle is there anything I can do to enhance the speed stepping of my cpus?

​I am at HS final release and I have a dual Broadwell-EP cpus.

I wanna mention that when I change in the bios the CPU HWPM STATE CONTROL to HWPM OOB MODE I can have a really fantastic CPU power management performance, but I can never reach the max performance even if I used performance fix from oarksit in clover patch section. but when I disable this option in the bios I can reach the highest frequency but with poor power management.

Check my EFI folder XCPM_config_kexts.

 

10.13_X99 Final_EFI.zip

 

I check it out, and I noticed that you have a kext to make your AppleLPC.kext Load. So I thought this is maybe the reason for not making my power management working well, I add a patch to my DSDT file and its worked fine. I mean the AppleLPC.kext.

Still with no different result in my cpus power management. I also checked several things but with no luck. by the way no one with Broadwell-EP cpus have proper power management performance under HS 10.13  I checked and I asked several people with the same cpus and I can say no result, its really frustrating.

 

I attached also my EFI file can you check it out? maybe I missed something.
