trx40 [Discussion] - TRX40 Bare Metal - Vanilla Patches

Btw, your proposed schema for me from yesterday also worked. But I tried 1 boot only. Let me compare all the schemas and I could change to one of the above that best matches so I can move back to no special slide from slide=80. With my current schema slide=80 is needed for consistent boot success.

Also, just like @Ploddles, above 4G was problematic for me on Catalina but I didn't do much testing since I don't need it enabled.

iGPU MSI TRX40 Creator Schema 4G off

here some user data with different motherboard

with all respect for vit.. but in the past they have also said patches were borked...

so I would verify all thing I can

and it is also possible to reserve some of those four to OS X as people do not need of DevirtualizeMMIO do

Based off this post here is the common devirts from all of us highlighted in red. This is what I propose.... We all use only these common devirts and have Above4G enabled and CSM disabled in BIOS only. No other changes.

Pavo · August 31, 2020

So... only whitelisting the common ones from across us all works for me. Gonna test Shutdown, Sleep/Wake and NVRAM.

fabiosun · August 31, 2020

All skilled people should analyze what devirtualizemmio on does

and the meaning to add whitelist address on our config.

this also comparing with system that boots fine without that quirk which is optimal situation we can’t achieve

so our goal is to free for OSX all address and page we can

How?

testing

Pavo · August 31, 2020

So... with only whitelisting the common address we all have across all the boards reported, sleep/wake, shutdown and nvram all works.

now... to determine which addresses are specifically for shutdown, sleep/wake and nvram. We are gonna have to disable one at a time and boot and test. Until we have working shutdown, sleep/wake and nvram working. But I really don't think matters in my opinion.

meina222 · August 31, 2020

@Pavo - I just tried your proposed address scheme. My 0x10400 pages addresses are different but the rest are the same. It boots. No slide required, Nvram works, Shutdown works. Sleep still doesn't - but I suspect this is due to my own hardware or USB. I certainly don't have USB mapping although that is by no means the reason for the sleep not working. I no longer get any kernel log message about sleep being prevented though.

@Pavo @fabiosun

I have too many versions of OC downloaded, I could have used the wrong one by mistake.

To make sure I have the right one I will download a fresh copy from Github and test again.

I think I will delete all my old versions so that I have nice clean copies of release and debug and make sure I don't mix them up by mistake.

I don't think I will have time tonight but will upload any useful text files I get.

Thank you for your patience.

I want to match mine - I see potential differences based on Pavo's config.plist

I want to match mine - I see potential differences based on Pavo's config.plist

My EC file now looks like below. Is this correct or is there too much ?
Scope (_SB.PCI0)
{
	Device (EC)
    {
		Name (_HID, "ACID0001")  // _HID: Hardware ID
        Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)  // _STA: Status
        {
			If (_OSI ("Darwin"))
            {
				Return (0x0F)
            }
            Else
            {
				Return (Zero)
            }
        }
    }
}

Sure.... Here is my SSDTs I currently use. Also you do realize using a EC device without a _CRS methods does nothing correct? In real Macs the EC devices is used as a query system to all other devices, since we do not have a embedded controller, adding a fake one does nothing.

Thank you. No, I didn't know. I have quite a few gaps in various topics including how the EC works on a real Mac. The Proxmox VM I started 2 months ago is my 1st Hackintosh project and now this is the 2nd. I collect knowledge in bits and pieces and a lot of it is by pattern matching, and not always (sadly) having deeper understanding.

When I enable 4G, all match Driftwood's who also has 4G enabled. They only differ in the bottom 4, which according to vit9696 are un-important.

And we both have dual Radeon VIIs in slots 1 & 3.

Test:

1)

what does devirtualizemmio quirk does?

2) which means to on or to off it?

3) skip 0 what does it mean in the debug?

4) skip1 what does it mean in the debug?

5) a system that does not need of that quirks use or not those mmio area/pages?

starting from here imho should be a common task😊

Pavo,

Just to be clear, from my post that you reference, you are only enabling in MmioWhitelist, the values in red?

That is, you are not including the top 4 that are green (or the top 2 in your list)?

And if true, then all of the TRX40 mobos will use the same list regardless of Above 4G settings, and have proper functioning shutdown, etc.

Pavo · August 31, 2020

So.... I have tested enabled every single MMIO address and can boot and have everything functioning properly except for 3 addresses.

I have tested the last 3 as individuals and the system will not boot, I have 3 more combinations to test, as first and second enabled, as first and last enabled, as second and last enabled. But it would appear that the last 3 addresses are the ones that are giving us issues.

Driftwood · August 31, 2020

I have everything working on Catalina BAREMETAL* which is slightly different than yesterday's (its similar to Fabiosun's but one of the Childs has changed to No (child15). And one other has changed to yes - i think it was one of the child's which was originally NO between 9 to 13.

I only have the last four MMIO w'lists on NO, everything else is on Yes with my address check and seems to function very well as in Shutdown, Restart and Sleep.

Here's My SDST-less config.plist (rename it of course and put your unique board UUIDs in place where it says fill in) and a look at kext versions Im using with OpenCore 61.

In this setup I'M NOT USING ANY SSDTs unlike the iGPU/Pavo style ones in Big Sur which I too use. It is pretty much what fabiosun recommended and simply, works!

Also you can see the files and dates (clue to their versions) Im using. Dont mix and match. For example, Id originally cloned a Proxmox Cat version 10.15.6 over to my test SSD. Initially it worked, but then I updated to a Supplementary Catalina Update (giving me macOS 10.15.6 (19G2021)) HOWEVER reboot it failed with a few old prelinked kexts. I got it resolved by deleting any old OC kexts such as lilu and whatever green in the test ssd drive's Library/Extensions and then rebuilding the Kextcache pointing kexwizard at the ssd test drive cat install.

On reboot I was backup and running as if nothing had happened.

*This is MacPro7,1 with Above 4G Enabled. Plus, none of my APCI values are enabled (no sdts)

In my original work, in the 0x10400 range, I had to enable the last one, and disable those above it, in order to boot. When I did that, I mostly was getting shutdown in Big Sur (but not Catalina).

Pavo · August 31, 2020

Ok... just confirmed that it is indeed the last 3 addresses in my case that is the issue. I have shutdown, sleep/wake and nvram all working with 16 of the 19 whitelisted with both Above4G enabled and disabled.

This is why I use last four to NO 🙂

Also did you check MMIO Hex addresses for Above 4G? They should be different (at least some of them) from Above 4G Disabled.

With the following (and Above 4G Enabled) my Cat MacPro7,1 system is VERY happy 🙂

Yes the address hex is the same for me with Above4G enabled and disabled.

Maybe we're getting down to what devices are being shifted into Above 4G or not :-) ?

Be interesting to see (as I have lots of pcie devices going on) if iGPU with his dual radeon like mine get shifted.

Mine were shifted and looks like your set up (here).

This suggests that the PCIe make up of our builds does not influence the MMio list (aside from multiple GPUs when 4G is enabled).

(Pavo and I have identical builds with same GPU, but he is using one and I two.)

Keyboard and mouse go off (USB) when using Pavo's last three only in Catalina. Last four =NO for me, and keyboard and mouse stay on :-)

Last 4 NO seems to agree with insanelyMac vit9696 guy then?!

@paulthesparky With firewire & RME Fireface 800 working rock steady on bare metal, I assume the MADI stufff will work. Im waiting on them to send me a test card. Apparently theres some new launches coming from RME 🙂

@Driftwood Music to my ears, literally. Just to be aware before pulling the final trigger, the RME MADI FX card which costs slightly more, than the RME MADI card, has the advantage of handling 3 times as many audio channels at the the same sample rate, than the standard MADI card which I have, along with the added built in FX and added functionality in Totalmix. They seem to fetch higher resale value second hand on the used market, if you ever decide to sell the MADI FX in the future. I realise, you may not need the extra channels in your situation. It more applies to those people recording a whole band in a studio, at high sample rates like 192 Khz. As far as reduced latency, MADI is about 'as good as it gets'.

Once you confirm it works, it's 'off to the races', to join you guys in earnest. I'll most likely buy the same motherboard/ GPU as yourself, or a MSI TRX40 Creator like IGPU, as it has extra USB ports, which I tend to use a lot of with loads of dongles etc.
