I would also like to work this out too.. I have just recently put Unraid back on my old QNAP TVS-882BRT3 and I still have the same problem I had before where the fans don't come on because they're not being detected/managed properly in Unraid. I was just about to try the recommendation above (I can't imagine it working any better than I tried last time even though its a newer kernel), when I saw this: https://github.com/guedou/TS-453Be Hmm... gonna have a sniff at this for a while. Back soon

Ooo thanks Leoyzen, hadn't seen that before. Good to know. I wasn't sure if the other patches could be used or not. I will try those and see if it changes anything.

Hmm.. definitely better CPU performance when back on my old Penryn again in Clover compared to the Opencore one. The Ableton glitching has mostly disappeared. But that could well just be me misconfiguring something somewhere, or not understanding something properly yet. Still pretty new to opencore, but love it already for its potential. No noticeable change in GPU performance. I'll try IvyBridge again and let you know in a bit.

Did you see about that in the Troubleshooting section here? https://khronokernel.github.io/Opencore-Vanilla-Desktop-Guide/troubleshooting/troubleshooting.html (Black screen after picker) See also: https://www.reddit.com/r/hackintosh/comments/euwwe5/opencore_black_screen_after_boot_picker_even As I understand it, Threadripper should be supported in bare metal, so should also be supported through KVM, but I can't confirm that as I don't have one. GPU seems ok to me generally, however when running Ableton on a heavyish project something is throttling it quite a bit, but I haven't yet dug into what it might be. CPU in iStat shows about 25% usage across all 16 cores, so plenty to spare. Going to go back tonight to IvyBridge to see what the differences are (also have you tried Skylake-Server? That one worked well for me in Clover previously.) It might be something to do with the USB (I've got a Focusrite 2i2), but I am passing through an entire Fresco Logic FL1100 USB 3.0 Host Controller so support should be perfect for the controller and the devices on it. I've attached them with redactions. Now some questions for you guys: Does anyone know if sidecar works with Ryzen host CPU pass-through? (or Intel emulated?) Has anyone managed to get Gigabyte Titan Ridge TB3 card working in Mac VM with device passthroughs? Shutting down or rebooting the OS seems to just pause the VM. Anyone know what I need to do to fix that? I'm guessing configuring some devices in opencore will help get my NIC back to en0/builtin again? iCloud/iMessage so far doesn't seem to care. libvirt.xml EFI.zip

I have just yesterday managed to get Opencore 0.5.5 to boot into MacOS 10.15.3 using host CPU passthrough with QEMU, and this is my first attempt at moving from Clover to Opencore. My setup: Asrock Taichi x570, AMD 3950x, Sapphire Nitro+ 580, Unraid 6.8.2. The Mac VM is a music production environment. To achieve this, I needed to follow this awesome Opencore setup guide pretty closely as if it were a bare metal install: https://aplus.rs/archives/ <-- check all the Feb 9 posts from here. I also spent a lot of time on this unraid forum, on the AMD-OSX forums, discord and reading their vanilla guide too.. all of which very useful. I wanted to be able to boot natively into MacOS instead of Unraid, to test the difference between VM and 'native' performance. But it turns out even though QEMU abstracts much of the VM hardware, the same Opencore EFI is so far still useful in the context of a VM and boots ok. For the 3950x I had to take the Opencore kernel patches as discussed in that guide and merge to Kernel>Patches sections of the Opencore config.plist (can do this easily using PlistEdit Pro). https://github.com/AMD-OSX/AMD_Vanilla/blob/opencore/17h/patches.plist Once I'd followed the guide and manually built myself an EFI folder, I used OC-Tool to lint/validate the plist and download any missing dependencies. https://github.com/rusty-bits/OC-tool. Finally, the EFI needs to be put into the opencore qcow2 image to use in the VM, so I grabbed `opencore.release.qcow2` from elsewhere in this forum, and mounted it on unraid using: modprobe nbd qemu-nbd --connect=/dev/nbd0 opencore.release.qcow2 <-- use network block device to mount qcow2 image into /dev/nbd0 mkdir EFI mount /dev/nbd0p1 EFI rm -rf EFI/* <-- delete all previous contents cp -r <prepared EFI folder>/* EFI/ <-- copy in the new OC-Tool validated EFI folder umount EFI qemu-nbd -d /dev/nbd0 <-- need to do this before you can boot your VM again otherwise the volume is locked In the Libvirt VM xml I am CPU pinning 16 cores and just passing the host CPU through : <cputune> <vcpupin vcpu="0" cpuset="2"/> <vcpupin vcpu="1" cpuset="18"/> <vcpupin vcpu="2" cpuset="3"/> <vcpupin vcpu="3" cpuset="19"/> <vcpupin vcpu="4" cpuset="4"/> <vcpupin vcpu="5" cpuset="20"/> <vcpupin vcpu="6" cpuset="5"/> <vcpupin vcpu="7" cpuset="21"/> <vcpupin vcpu="8" cpuset="6"/> <vcpupin vcpu="9" cpuset="22"/> <vcpupin vcpu="10" cpuset="7"/> <vcpupin vcpu="11" cpuset="23"/> <vcpupin vcpu="12" cpuset="8"/> <vcpupin vcpu="13" cpuset="24"/> <vcpupin vcpu="14" cpuset="9"/> <vcpupin vcpu="15" cpuset="25"/> <emulatorpin cpuset="0,4"/> <iothreadpin iothread="1" cpuset="7"/> </cputune> <cpu mode="host-passthrough" check="none"/> and in my qemu:commandline section: <qemu:arg value="-cpu"/> <qemu:arg value="host,+hypervisor,migratable=no,-erms,+invtsc,kvm=on,+topoext,+invtsc,+avx,+aes,+xsave,+xsaveopt,+ssse3,+sse4_2,+popcnt,+arat,+pclmuldq,+pdpe1gb,+rdtscp,+vme,+umip,check"/> I'm not sure about the CPU feature switches I have on there are right in this situation, but I can see the kernel patches working in the booted VM as the CPU is named correctly when doing: $ sysctl -n machdep.cpu.brand_string AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16-Core Processor Although, looking in 'About This Mac' shows a CPU of '3.5 Ghz Intel Core i5' (I did see something about forcing family Penryn in those 17h Kernel patches), but CPU performance has been pretty good so far, but still have a few things to sort out. My ethernet is no longer en0 and built-in, I have no working wifi yet (I've got a Fenvi 919 but no room to fit it until I get a pci-e riser and move the GFX card out of the way first) so no working airdrop or sidecar (not sure if sidecar can work anyway?)... Also I have a Gigabyte Titan Ridge card but haven't got this working yet either. Unraid detects it, but can't detect the egpu enclosure underneath yet or the 1080 ti inside it. Booting into Ubuntu 19.10 directly on my machine does show the egpu enclosure though, so I'm hoping I just need to wait for an Unraid with 5.3+ kernel and Thunderbolt support compiled in, and perhaps boltctl (not sure), but I'm not in a desperate hurry to get that working in my macOS vm (I have a windows VM as well I want for gaming but lower priority right now).

I would like to see this also if possible please? I have a Ryzen 3950x and am interested to see how opencore presents the CPU to the VM and what performance benefits there might be (if any). I'd also like to use Filevault2.

Hi there, I'm using ASRock Taichi x570 + 3950x processor, with Gigabyte Titan Ridge AIC. I'm trying to use my 1080ti eGPU in Razer Core X enclosure in a Windows VM. As the 3950x has no discrete GPU, I have an Nvidia GT710 in pcie slot 1 to use as the boot GPU for now. I was able to do this for the last 6 months with my previous unraid build (6.8.0 on repurposed 2017 i7 4400k QNAP box with alpine ridge TB3 cards added). that worked pretty well.. not sure how the video card was detected and able to show up in list of IOMMU devices then, when I've only just been able to get TB3 devices visible on my new x570 system in /sys/bus/thunderbolt since it was enabled in the kernel of 6.8.1-rc1, which was installed last night (I can see the tb3 controller in IOMMU but no egpu video card yet). In the list of thunderbolt devices in /sys/bus/thunderbolt I can see the Razer X enclosure (which has an alpine ridge controller on it) but not the video card underneath yet. I'm wondering if boltctl/boltd will help with this, or should I be able to see the full chain of devices already? I might try booting into Ubuntu to check how well the thunderbolt devices work in there. When I boot the x570 machine into windows instead of unraid I can successfully use the egpu, so it all seems viable if only I can get the gfx card into IOMMU and then into a VM. I did hear of problems some people have had with 3000 series ryzens and GPU passthrough in other threads here though, so I'm not sure how easy it will be to get working.

omg good timing.. I've just built a new PC and really needed the thunderbolt support as I couldn't find it anywhere.. Now all I need is boltctl to add devices on it onto IOMMU and I'm ready to roll!
