Can this be related to the keyboard itself? I'm not quite sure.I tested it with external usb keyboard(not the one qemu added). It also quite tricky to triger bootpicker, you must enter the key(option/esc) multiple times when the uefi logo appears. Quote Link to comment

ghost82 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 (edited) I'm trying to configure the chime on boot, but I have some problems..Not sure if it's related to opencore or to my xml config, or both.. I have HDAU (nvidia gpu audio) and HDEF (Realtek ALC899) passed through.

I think that the problem could be related to what opencore reports as the address of HDEF: PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0) instead of PciRoot(0x1)/Pci(0x2,0x0) This also for the address of HDAU, it changes 1 with 0... Do you know if this could be a problem/bug of opencore or of my xml?Can I change PciRoot(0x1) to PciRoot(0x0)? How? Attached my xml. The HDEF part is: <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'> <driver name='vfio'/> <source> <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x1b' function='0x0'/> </source> <alias name='hostdev2'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0' multifunction='on'/> </hostdev> Thanks xml.txt HdaCodecDump.txt Edited April 20, 2020 by ghost82 Quote Link to comment

Here is the reply by vit9696: Quote It sometimes happens that firmwares and macOS have different device paths. There is not much to do to this, just use the one the firmware sees. So, I changed in the config.plist from: <key>Audio</key> <dict> <key>AudioCodec</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>AudioDevice</key> <string>PciRoot(0x1)/Pci(0x2,0x0)</string> <key>AudioOut</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>AudioSupport</key> <true/> <key>MinimumVolume</key> <integer>20</integer> <key>PlayChime</key> <true/> <key>VolumeAmplifier</key> <integer>0</integer> </dict> to this: <key>Audio</key> <dict> <key>AudioCodec</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>AudioDevice</key> <string>PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0)</string> <key>AudioOut</key> <integer>0</integer> <key>AudioSupport</key> <true/> <key>MinimumVolume</key> <integer>20</integer> <key>PlayChime</key> <true/> <key>VolumeAmplifier</key> <integer>0</integer> </dict> Quote Link to comment
ghost82 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) Just a note for AudioDxe: if you use it, use the release version from Applesupport package. Debug version has some problems: it doesn't boot with log to file (ex: Target 65, or Target 83). The issue was reported on github and it should be solved in future. UPDATE: this is fixed in master Edited April 25, 2020 by ghost82 Quote Link to comment
david279 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Anyone took a look at this kext? https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/tired-of-low-geekbench-scores-use-radeonboost.2231366/ Plist inside is a lot like the AGPMInjector kext we have been using here? Quote Link to comment

Yes, that kext includes "our" AGPM injector kext; if you look at the code the first part of the plist includes all the mac os systems for AGPM injection; the second part of the kext, from <key>RadeonVIIBoost</key>, as specified by the original poster, "injects the appropriate driver parameters to the RadeonFramebuffer". If you look at the code you have several amd cards supported. Unfortunately I cant test, I have nvidia. Edited April 22, 2020 by ghost82 Quote Link to comment
ghost82 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Anyone ever tried to passthrough the DVD/CD/BlueRay (writer) drive to mac os? The only thing I was able to do was to mount the drive in unraid and read the content in mac os through smb. Quote Link to comment
autoturk Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) For the boot picker to show up, you just need to have "Misc/Boot/ShowPicker" set to True in the config.plist. On an unrelated note, has anyone successfully done USB port mapping with an Intel USB controller passed through to the Catalina VM? Edited April 22, 2020 by autoturk added more detail.

ghost82 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) Hi, anyone knows what is the correct way to update the OVMF firmware in Unraid? I'm able to compile OVMF from github and I tried the following: 1a- copy edk2/Build/OvmfX64/FV/OVMF.fd to /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/OVMF-pure-efi.fd (renamed) 1b- copy edk2/Build/OvmfX64/FV/OVMF_CODE.fd to /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/OVMF_CODE-pure-efi.fd (renamed) 1c- copy edk2/Build/OvmfX64/FV/OVMF:VARS.fd to /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/OVMF_VARS-pure-efi.fd (renamed) The VM doesn't boot 2- copy edk2/Build/OvmfX64/FV/OVMF.fd to /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/OVMF-pure-efi.fd (renamed) The VM seems ok and it boots Is it correct to replace only OVMF-pure-efi.fd? UPDATE: it doesn't seem to be the correct way, since the vm is using the code and vars files... UPDATE2: partially solved..I needed to check permissions on files, I copied the new OVMF_VARS.fd to /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/ and /etc/libvirt/qemu/nvram; I copied OVMF_CODE.fd to /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/; set permissions 666 to OVMF_VARS.fd in /etc/libvirt/qemu/nvram, 644 to OVMF_VARS.fd and OVMF_CODE.fd in /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/ VM is now pointing pflash at /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x64/OVMF_CODE.fd and nvram at /etc/libvirt/qemu/nvram/OVMF_VARS.fd However the NOOPT version doesn't run, also the DEBUG version doesn't run, I'm able to work only with the RELEASE version I know that probably it is not persistent after a reboot, but I think I know how to make it persistent.

david279 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) I have a 2700x and i don't use the amd patches at all. I just let the VM think its using Ivy Bridge. As far as your config.plist slim it down. You have a bunch drivers and kext you do not need. Take a look at @Leoyzen Git for a guide for how your EFI and config.plist should look. Read the opencore vanilla guide here it gives a lot of good info. Edited April 25, 2020 by david279 Quote Link to comment
david279 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) Post the xml for your VM so we can see that....Also are you trying to boot 10.15.4? Edited April 25, 2020 by david279 Quote Link to comment
tomnic Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I want to try a "real" boot, as I said in the post I've quoted... so I suppose that 15/16th patches cannot boot 3xxx series Ryzens. For the virtual one I'll try as soon I'll change my mainboard Quote Link to comment
