I'm passing though : GPU, nVme drive controller and usb controller (Fresco Logic FL1100 USB 3.0 Host Controller). And I'm only using the ports on the Fresco card... do I still need mapping and USB patches ? Thanks ! I'll try what you suggest and I'll report back.

Well... I spoke too soon. The KP as I wake macOS are back. Every time now. And this is the report I get : mp_kdp_enter() timed-out on cpu 0, NMI-ing mp_kdp_enter() NMI pending on cpus: 0 1 3 6 7 mp_kdp_enter() timed-out during locked wait after NMI;expected 8 acks but received 4 after 0 loops in 8192004096000 ticks With few variations on CPUs number and count... I tried with isolated CPU's and without, with vti=12, 9 or 14 : same problem. And I really don't get why it worked two days in a row without a single issue (and during that time, the process : macOS sleep / unraid sleep / unraid wake / macOS wake happened at least 8 times (as I was testing it and not believing it was working...) 😭

Sir, you are an absolute Champion. My hero. My saviour. I do not know who your are, or where you're from but you alone make the internet worth to me. This absolute simple advice solved a two year long mystery : the macos sleep / unraid sleep / unraid wake / macos wake -- macos random crash issue Since two days everything works now flawlessly. Before that, I was about seriously considering buying a mac mini... So. THANK YOU.

I'm on BigSur.

Nvidia GT 710 / ASUS TUF GAMING X570 / AMD Ryzen 7 2700X - MacPro6,1 Everything is passed trough : GPU, 4 Cores, USB controller, and Nvme SSD Controller. And I use hibernatemode 25, which is the most stable but also leeds to a crash enventually. When you say "it's too much to handle", I have the exact same opinion but I'm stubborn and I'm wondering two thing : - is it working for someone ? - how to investigate properly the issue ? (because I have no clue)

Just a quick question : do you also put your Unraid to sleep while your VM is also at sleep ? Because that's the one (main) thing I can't solve on my system : Putting macOS to sleep, unraid to sleep, waking up Unraid, then waiking up macOS without it crashing after a few minutes... If I don't put Unraid to sleep, then the sleep function (pmset 25) of my macOS works just fine. And because the crash after waking up macOS occurs randomly (it can work for for many minutes or crash instantly) I do not know how to begin to search for the problem.. (on the Unraid side or on the VM side...). And should it even work ? (putting the server and the vm to sleep at the same time).

Yes it's passed through. And its a SAMSUNG 980PRO. <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </source> <alias name='hostdev0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x04' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </hostdev> I read that the Samsung controller where tricky and not advised on a Hackintosh. But I found no specific info/comment on this one ("Elpis" controller).

Unfortunatly, it does not... I should see close to double the speed... But it's not a real problem so It's quite low in my "solve the thing" list. 😑

Hi ! Is there a way to add a condition to prevent sleep based on UPS consumption ? My problem is : I use the S3 sleep pluging to automatically put my server to sleep. It checks if no VM is runnig by pinging them. BUT, If I'm in a OS update process, the VM is not responding to the ping, so the S3 sleep pluging puts the server to sleep. Crashing my update process. Graphic cards are passed through my VM resulting in more power consumption when active. I thought that by checking if the UPS power is below a certain value, the plugin could be "sure" that no VM is running. But maybe there is a smarter solution with virsh ?

I do not now. I think it would be possible by adding the correct command in the sleep plugin (as sleep is not officially supported by Unraid). And it may be a clean way, but not the logical way in my opinion. The VM has to decide by itself (or by manual command) to be put to sleep. And THEN, the Unraid server, "seeing" that everyone is sleeping, puts himself to sleep. And that's how I have it working. The problem I have is on wake up ^^ (for MacOS only, though). EDIT : and by "sleep" I mean hibernate... just to be clear. And It this state I can even restart the server and the W10 VM will resume OK. EDIT again : I looked around and noticed the option "Enable Virtual BMC :" in the VM manager. And I think that could enable what you suggested.

I can answer this as I use a Windows 10 and BigSur VM : I can put to sleep the Windows Vm and put to sleep Unraid with no problem : I wake Unraid, then the W10 wm, and all work fine. Everytime. All bueno. For my Bigsur VM (and for Catalina before it), it's another story and it's the ONLY thing that I can't solve on my Unraid system (well beside network troubles under BigSur..). Meaning the same operation as with the W10 VM works... sometimes. And I can't figure out why as the problem is not happening everytime. But that would be the subject of another thread 🤫

Nope. I m on Asus TUF x570.

I'm using this one with no apparent problem : "nateck Carte Contrôleur USB 3.0 2 Ports PCI Express pour Win XP/7/8/10 Auto alimentée,KT4006" https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B00JEVLEFQ/

Has anyone updated to OpenCore 0.6.5 ? I'm on 0.6.4 with network / sleep / Nvme problems. Should I upgrade ?

Is there really an advantage to choose the "right" model ? (beside having one that is not too old for BigSur)

Is anyone besides me experiencing troubles with network file transfert (from the Unraid file server to the VM) ? I'm using e1000-82545em as the script dictates, but on large file transfert I get a Kernel panic and it reboots... Using Vmxnet3 is ok for file transfert, but I'm having other troubles with it (like losing the network conenction). I have a Catalina (Clover) VM running with the same hardware and no problems with it.

Have a look here : https://dortania.github.io/GPU-Buyers-Guide/modern-gpus/nvidia-gpu.html Or just buy a Nvidia GT 710 ! (I have one and it works great with no tweaks in BigSur.

You can take a look here : https://dortania.github.io/GPU-Buyers-Guide/modern-gpus/nvidia-gpu.html#pascal-series-gtx-10xx If I read correctly, the 1050ti is unsupported (as is my 1070...). But the trusty GT 710 is without a tweak ! (and it's a cheap card...)

I'm here for some help again... I passed through my Nvme and I finally put it on the right soket (the one wich support GEN 4 over chipset). The command : lspci -vvvn -s 04:00.0 | grep LnkSta results in : LnkSta: Speed 16GT/s (ok), Width x4 (ok) But, in System Report, I get a blank for the "link speed" information. After the install of BigSur, as my drive was on the first socket (GEN 3), "link speed" was 8GT/s (as it should have been). Now how do I get my drive at 16GT/s under Big Sur ?

I did not add NullEthernet.kext and ssdt-rmne.aml. I just added a line in DevicePropreties (in config.plist using OpenCore Configurator) as I just learned here. The method explained here aslo helped. It's doing the same thing, differently ^^

Sooo... I might be of some help, for a change. I had the problem with login to my Apple ID and had various error messages like "could not communicate withe server" or "this computer already registered to many ID's" (or something like that. I did two things : 1 - I fixed the En0 following this guide. The problem was thas I had a network adapater as En0 but it was not marked as built-in. 2 - I notice that even if I filled out the "PlatformInfo" tab in the OpenCore Configurator as shown in the video (with mac model, serial number etc...) when I clicked on "About this mac" I had no model specified... just "mac". And Hackintool also showed Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009)" as Model indentifier. The error I made (or the thing I did not corrected) was that under the PlatformInfo tab the scroll down menu on the bottom right was set to "Overwrite"... But it obviously had nothing to overwrite and changing it to "create" did the trick ! On reboot I had the right model identifier and I could log in to icloud with no problem... Hope that will help someone !

It worked ! Thanks for the help.

About this "could not communicate with server" error that I also have, I do not know if it is related but Hackintool reports "Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009)" as Model indentifier instead of the MacPro6,1 I defined in the config.plist...

Thank you for you answer but it seem over my capacities ☺️. I managed to find the path (PciRoot(0x1)/Pci(0x2,0x3)/Pci(0x0,0x0)). I added the device to "DeviceProperties" but I did not find out how to set the "built-in" property to true... (and I searched). But, I does not seem that having the nvme recognize as external drive will impact performance, right ? So I might just leave it like that.

Hello ! And sorry if I post (again) my question in the wrong topic... Using the new Macinabos (with opencore), I managed to install Big Sur on my Nvme drive that has its controller passed through. So I have no <disk> in my template and everything seems to be working fine. But, the drive is recognize as an external drive is MacOs... I do not know if it is a problem or not, but my OCD would like it to be recognize as an internal drive. Is there a trick ?
