November 20, 20196 yr Switched to my open core setup which ive been running for the last week but was swapping to clover incase that seemed to work at all. Im feeling it might be something on my Unraid side but here is what I have if you're able to see where im wrong I had it working for one reboot but of course I can't remember what it actually was that had the TSC frequency correct.

but would prefer to stick to 12

Update INVTSC is not showing up detected by the OS even tho its in my XML.... this is perhaps the problem or one of them
November 20, 20196 yr 3 hours ago, tpruszin said: INVTSC is not showing up detected by the OS even tho its in my XML Same here. EDIT: To enable it, add to qemu arg migratable=no <qemu:arg value='host,migratable=no,+invtsc, From qemu wiki: New "invtsc" (Invariant TSC) CPU feature. When enabled, this will block migration and savevm, so it is not enabled by default on any CPU model. To enable invtsc, the migratable=no flag (supported only by -cpu host, by now) is required. So, invtsc is available only if using: -cpu host,migratable=no,+invtsc. Edited November 20, 20196 yr by ghost82

November 20, 20196 yr Thank a lot for your thread ! My Catalina work very very well (now with sound, thank again !) Now, I only need a better network card support for iCloud and nice down/upload to unraid (I try vmxnet3, iCloud work but 300Mb down for 120up ...) I waiting my AirPort and M,2 connector too for a real Mac alternative
November 20, 20196 yr 8 hours ago, ghost82 said: Same here. EDIT: To enable it, add to qemu arg migratable=no <qemu:arg value='host,migratable=no,+invtsc, From qemu wiki: New "invtsc" (Invariant TSC) CPU feature. When enabled, this will block migration and savevm, so it is not enabled by default on any CPU model. To enable invtsc, the migratable=no flag (supported only by -cpu host, by now) is required. So, invtsc is available only if using: -cpu host,migratable=no,+invtsc. Thanks for figuring that one out! Still only showing 3,199,999Hz Does yours show the correct Frequency for your CPU? My QEMU arg now is -cpu host,migratable=no,+invtsc,kvm=on,+hypervisor with host-passthrough as the only cpu value up the top of my XML

November 21, 20196 yr Here another issue, maybe related to the lack of c and p states: On real machintosh the output shows values for CPU_Scheduler_Limit, CPU_Available_CPUs and CPU_Speed_Limit. Lack of this may be linked to Turbo, and it can explain lower results in geekbench tests. Tried with different smbios: imacpro1,1 and also imac12,2 (because I have Sandy bridge). I tried: 1- Pike's script to generate SSDT: ./ssdtPRGen.sh -b Mac-7BA5B2D9E42DDD94 -p 'E5-2687W' By inserting the SSDT into opencore I see no relevant changes in ioreg. 2- CPUFriend + CPUFriendDataProvider ./ResourceConverter.sh --kext /System/Library/Extensions/IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/X86PlatformPlugin.kext/Contents/Resources/Mac-942B59F58194171B.plist CPUFriendDataProvider is generated, injected through opencore with lilu+CPUFriend, I can see in ioreg a new entry in AppleACPICPU named "cf-frequency-data", but no pstates nor cstates under X86PlatformPlugin. 3- Pike's script + CPUFriend + CPUFriendDataProvider Using Pike's script to generate SSDT (SSDT-pr.aml), then using it with ResourceConverter: ./ResourceConverter.sh --kext /Users/daniele/Desktop/SSDT-pr.aml CPUFriendDataProvider is generated (different from that of point 2), injected through opencore with lilu+CPUFriend, I can see in ioreg a new entry in AppleACPICPU named "cf-frequency-data", but no pstates nor cstates under X86PlatformPlugin. Also opencore during boot shows messages like "ACST and _CST evaluations failed", "APSS and _PSS evaluations failed", "Failed to get CPU P States", "Deepsleep is not supported".

Do i need AppleALC kext to get that to work, working sound from the GPU? Im using a rx 570 and i use a usb audio device for sound and it works without any issues but this would free up a usb port.

AppleALC correctly handles the audio (including that integrated in the gpu), so I think you need it. How do you currently manage the audio?

How do you currently manage the audio? I use a usb audio device right now that works out the box without any kext needed. Just looking to free up a usb port. The device has worked in every Mac version i have used without issue. Audio controls work and everything.
November 21, 20196 yr This is what the sound out for my GPU looks like. My monitor has no speaker but has a audio out port i will try.

November 21, 20196 yr Ok downloaded a app called sound control to control the master volume of my GPU
November 21, 20196 yr 24 minutes ago, david279 said: Ok downloaded a app called sound control to control the master volume of my GPU Are you sure you can control volume for hdmi from osx?I never used it as I'm using the built in audio, but from what I can see here: it is not possible directly...am I right? Can I ask you if you disconnect the hdmi cable from the gpu, if you see the hdmi audio in sound preference panel? Edited November 21, 20196 yr by ghost82
November 21, 20196 yr If i unplug the cable i lose the DP audio in the sound prefs. The app im using sound control allows me to control the volume from the DP port or the USB device. Its actually a decent app. I can still use the volume wheel on my keyboard and it looks just like the volume display like a built in device. Edited November 21, 20196 yr by david279
November 21, 20196 yr Thanks I cannot test the hdmi audio, I have not cables, and I couldn't see any hdmi audio port in the sound preference panel, so I asked. But in ioreg everything seems ok: HDAU is in place, and the driver is attached, so I think it's working. I suggest to take in place the AppleALC+WEG+Lilu kexts.
November 21, 20196 yr Hi, iMacPro1,1 work for you ? I get kernel panic if I switch Edit : Second question, customize Ram Slot can improve performance ? I passthrough a RX480, Lilu 1,39 is needed ? Edited November 21, 20196 yr by Balooforever

Lilu+weg are adviced for correct gpu management. Edited November 22, 20196 yr by ghost82

November 21, 20196 yr Lilu 1.3.8 doesn't work with qemu: Leoyzen pointed out this issue at github and now v.1.3.9 can be used with qemu. I don't know why your gpu works, but not for lilu 1.3.8 for sure
