PMheart Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 @Slice right and this new Kernel Version seems to break XCPM Patches for unknown CPU´s at least in case of IvyBridge. Applying the well known patches leads to a boot loop... Seemed that I didn't get any changes of the patches. I also patch the kernel for my IVB model to enable XCPM. Could you please tell some details, for example, your "not worked" patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griven Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 @Slice, @PMheart sorry my fault forget about it... I use Ozmosis and since it lacks support of on the fly patching I´ll have to bin patch the kernel on my own and messed things up I guess. XCPM is up and working as before sysctl -n machdep.xcpm.mode 1 sysctl -n machdep.xcpm.vectors_loaded_count 1 Sorry for the inconvenience I may have caused. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you explain how did you patched the kernel on Ozmosis? Thanks.

Fredde2209 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Did anyone find out, if 10.12.4 brings any differences for the Polaris GPUs? Well, now I did... Doesn't work :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Lamp Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Question, is there a way to get a full installer of the latest beta? I just got a Kaby lake laptop. I thought I'd throw it at it and see if it sticks. If not I can still spoof the CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple never seeds a complete installer of beta version except for the new system build which is released on WWDC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergarth Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Updated to Sierra 12.4 beta 2 (16E154a) and Clover r4003. Everything works fine and stable as always, except for NvidiaWebDrive. With the plist edited from 16D to 16E, it recognizes the graphic card and has some resolutions, but without full acceleration... PMheart, as you suggested I installed your MP61_freqV_w_iMac171.kext on SLE and erased it on Clover. And now it seems to me that it's your kext that's running the FreqVectors. I installed it before the OS update and yes, it survived Thanks friend 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisdak4920 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 The most significant change for me for 10.12.4 aside form stability is the disappearance of second stage boot indicator. It goes straight to login screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk No. Pike's freqVectorsEdit.sh is just for adding/replacing FrequencyVectors. IMHO iMac17,1's FrequencyVectors is the best one for your Skylake Desktop build. You may need to enable HWP for further optimizations but TBH it's a little complicated... Sorry I can't talk about this clearly since I'm currently on my mobile phone.

Slice Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Yes. iMac17,1 is containing FrequencyVectors. Sorry, no. My result is because of additional kext X17PlatformPlugin.kext.zip AFAIK works only in SLE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMheart Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Sorry, no. My result is because of additional kext X17PlatformPlugin.kext.zip AFAIK works only in SLE. Actually iMac17,1 has contained FrequencyVectors already and thus you don't need to inject it via a dummy kext. But as iMac17,1 does not support some features like hwp, epp for Skylake, I find that you are using another set of FrequencyVectors from other SMBios. Maybe a MacBookPro13,1, sorry for more details, I can't tell. (I inferred it's MBP131 just because I found your LFM is 0xD/13 and your EPP is 0x92/146, that's what MBP131 used.) Anyway. For desktops I think the 'perf-bias' should be 0x01/1 instead of 0x05/5, 0x05 is laptops used (for a better battery life time). And I think EPP should be 0x80/128 (by default). That can be better. Also. Yep. These kinds of dummy kext/injector should only work in SLE/LE. I adjusted your FrequencyVectors, have a try? You can check what I did via Hex Editor. [EDIT] Confusing contents removed.

Try to increase the EPP value to 0xC0/192 and set 'perf-bias' to 5? Like this. X17PlatformPlugin.kext.zip [uPDATE] I don't think that you should use the FrequencyVectors from a laptop SMBios. You can try this patched plist which is modified based on the vanilla Mac-DB15BD556843C820.plist (iMac17,1), with HWP enabled, EPP value 0x80/128. Please also try this?
