    There is no disrespect to you @fabiosunand I know what you are doing is in good faith. The patches you published do not fully work for me at the moment and I would not expect you to release the new patches to anyone until algrey is happy for you to do so. Hopefully this will be soon but they could well change again with the next beta, in a week or so or whenever it is released by Apple. Hopefully they will make my system more stable.

    Until AMD-OSX release the full set of new patches that enable BS and Monterey Beta 2 to boot I am not going to try anything else. Even though one of my patches has been deprecated and no longer appears in the official list, my system will not boot reliably without it, so I will leave my patches as per my last upload as at least that is working. Once the new ones are release I will readdress it.

    It is about the same for Big Sur. Worse for Monterey as I just get a black screen. I tried with and without whatevergreen.kext, it makes no difference. With my old patches I do get an output to my screen.

    @fabiosun I booted with verbose mode each time. A clean install of BS 11.5 beta 4, updated to beta 5, worked fine for 5 minutes before I restarted for the next test. Older install of BS 11.4 with all my programs installed:- 1st start panicked and automatically rebooted shortly after entering my password and before loading my desktop, menu bar or dock. 2nd start locked up a few minutes after startup. 3rd start worked ok for 5 minutes before I restarted to test Monterey. Monterey seemed to start but never displayed the log on screen. I left it for a few minutes but it didn't reboot or ever display anything on the screen. I rebooted and the same thing happened. 3rd reboot was the same.

    The one that does work for me at the moment is :- config.plist.zip If I just replace the patches section with yours then the system stops as in above image. If I also change the various quirks sections as well it stops at the same place.
  6. Ploddles
    No it won't boot at all at the moment. I'm probably doing something wrong along the way. I don't expect it will be long before the Beta 2 patches are released so I will just wait. There is no hurry as I can still boot with the old patches.

    @fabiosun I have just tried your patches and quirks and my system will not boot at all. I will stop trying different things for now and wait until you can post your full efi with all your new settings (patches (inc Monterey B2 ones), quirks etc). I will just change the mmio whitelist and memory settings to those for my mb and proceed from there. Thank you for all you are doing for us Threadripper pioneers.

    Yes, this is with RestrictEvents. Processor Type = 3842

    I eagerly await the patches. I will leave my system as it is now until they are released. I want to get rid of that extra patch I need to stop the random reboot / lockup. I will also change my quirks etc to match yours at the same time to see if everything is stable on my system like that. Has Shannee given you any clue as to when they will be released to the rest of us?

    I get this (BS and Monterey) without the revcpu or revcpuname entries as per your spoiler, so I am assuming it must be reading it from the BIOS.
  11. Ploddles
    Anyone tested the new patches with Big Sur 11.5 Beta 5? Not that I am expecting any changes now in the latest beta released today so they should be fine. This will probably be the last update, bar any further security updates, to Big Sur before we move on to Monterey.
  12. Ploddles
    Looking forward to that to see if they will solve my lockup / reboot issue without the deprecated one. I will wait for them to be released before I make any further changes to my EFI - there is no rush.
  13. Ploddles
    Without patch 20 my system will load and run but randomly either completely locks up or reboots without warning, usually within 5 minutes but 10 minutes at the most. With it enabled it is stable and does not lock up or reboot. Very strange. I will retest by disabling it and changing my quirks etc to the ones you mention above in [AMD] - Kernel Patches - Riduzione Patches utilizzate (Big Sur e Monterey Beta 1)
  14. Ploddles
    Thanks, I have such a bad memory - I blame old age 😀. It has made no difference to the stability of my machine - it is fully stable as long as I have that last patch enabled. I could try again disabling that kext and the last patch and see if it makes a difference.
  15. Ploddles
    Yes I have that loaded. I started using it a little while back, I can't remember why, and just never disabled it again. Maybe that is what enabled the correct processor name to be displayed? With or without those quirks etc, my system will not boot without the extra patches as above.

    Prior to updating to OC 0.7.1 I was using the internal BT/Wifi card with V 1.1.2 of the OpenIntelWireless BT drivers (THESE). They worked fine with a BT headset - I wasn't bothered about AirDrop but it would be nice to have it working, just for completeness. I updated the drivers to the V 2.0.0 RC1 alpha drivers, together with BlueToolFixup for Monterey, but they don't work for me in Monterey or Big Sur. The config.plist file was set up with the correct kexts depending on which version of macOS was booted. I'll try downgrading to V 1.1.3 and see how they work out for me. I need 4 extra patches in order to boot either BS or Monterey. Neither will boot at all without 3 of them and without the fourth the system will randomly lock up or reboot - even when doing nothing. They are the last 4 in the plist attached, starting with ???? in the comments section. @fabiosunif I use the quirks in your link above rather than my own then whilst it does load I can't see what I gain but I loose the full Processor Information as shown in my screenshot above. It goes from "3.7 Ghz AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X 32-Core Proce..." to "3.7 Ghz Unknown". This is being read from the BIOS but I can't remember which of the quirks etc I enabled to get it to read and show - it has not been entered manually anywhere. At some point I could change each one and see when it changes but that is for another time when I have plenty of time on my hand to play, it is not a priority for now. patches.plist.zip

    I have updated to OC 0.7.1 and added new patches for Monterey. I seem to need a few more patches than the rest of you to be able to install and boot Monterey, but I still need to try a few more combinations of the patches to minimise the extra ones I am using. I will post my EFI once I have narrowed it down a bit. Nice to see that the Threadripper Processor is still being automatically identified in System Info, but Bluetooth isn't working as yet.

    If it boots back to the previous one then on the reboot during update it picked the wrong part to boot from. Reboot again and see if there is an extra entry in the picker. If there is then boot that and it will probably complete the update. If there isn’t then try the update again and keep an eye out for the extra picker option and choose that. Remember you only have 4-5 seconds if you leave it to choose itself. It happens occasionally. Just arrow across to another choice to stop the timer.

    New Big Sur 11.5 beta 4 (20G5052c) is out. Let's hope the new Monterey patch list plays nicely with it - I probably won't get a chance to play with either until the weekend.
  20. Ploddles
    Just downloaded the patches for Monterey, all 46 of them. It could take a while to go through them all and sanitise them (delete the ones we don't need).
  21. Ploddles
    Sorry, my mistake, I just looked at the patch number. 😇
  22. Ploddles
    I have not had your patch 11 enabled in my config.plist for many many months now. Have you tried without it?
  23. Ploddles
    Monterey Beta 2 has just landed, lets hope that the patches come out soon.
  24. Ploddles
    Yes, that is what I was doing, getting things ready for Monterey, and I had set the Min & Max Kernel section for all 3 kexts, ie it wasn’t set to load the BluetoolFixup.kext with Big Sur. However the new IntelBluetoothFirmware.kext was halting the boot with a critical error. Replacing that kext with the old (v 1.1.2) one and I was back to normal. I’ll retry on the next update of these kexts.

    @fabiosun disabling patch 12 boots to a black screen, nothing displayed on the monitor.
