Dell T3500 Xeon W3680 Clover Shutdown problem

Hello,

 

I am really impressed with clover, testing on my T3500 with smbios macpro 5,1 and Xeon W3680, Geforce GT640.

The only thing I cant get past is: shutdown results in a KP and an instant restart (and wake up from sleep takes very long).

 

I have tried various Bios settings, and clover settings: darkwake, Hpet edits, Fake id, inject reset values and so on.

Even tried removing Tymce...kext and using smbios for Macpro 3,1 which also boots fine but same thing on shutdown.

Also edited AGPM kext for G-states but it did not change...

 

HPET, LPC, RTC, AICPUPM CPU PM states 111122 etc., everything seems to load fine.

 

Clover boots into OSX 10.10.1 all the time... but on shutdown I always get this KP after cpu is killed - something related to NV/Graphics. (Also of note the power button does not invoke the shutdown menu, only does full shutdown after a few seconds)

 

Can anybody tell me where to look further: clover settings/Bios or DSDT...? (see attached DSDTdsdt_config.zip and config)

Some (strange) progress: I moved the Geforce 640 to the upper PCI slot and tried the yellow DVI-out.

It seems to shutdown now - I´ll test how stable this is now.... (sleep still takes minutes to wake up)

 

The T3500 is an X58 system, I use a W3680 six-core, 12 Gig ECC Ram (MacPro5,1 smbios) GT 640, some SDD Drive

ADI 198x Integrated HD Audio Driver (havent tried patching, maybe voodoo should do it) 

BIOS 8MB flash memory for system BIOS; SMBIOS 2.5 support

Network Controller: Integrated Broadcom® 5761 Gigabit Ethernet controller with Remote Wake UP and PXE support 

Intel® Xeon® 3600 or 3500 series processors with up to six-cores and up to 6.4GT/s (Intel QuickPath Interconnect) and up to 12MB shared cache; Turbo Boost Mode on select processors; All processors are 64-bit, support Intel DBS (demand-based switching) and Intel VT (Intel Virtualization Technology)

Note: Intel TXT is not supported. Turbo Mode and HyperThreading technology on select processors 

 

Some things I noticed from bootlog:

Thanks for reading

Thanks, I think I already applied shutdown I think - in my DSDT there is:

 

   Scope (\)

    {
        Name (SSTX, Zero)
        Method (_PTS, 1, NotSerialized)
        {
            If (LEqual (Arg0, 0x05)) {}
            Else
            {
                PSKM (Arg0) <dont know about that
            }
        }
    }
 
I am also trying to fix my Powerbutton - there is no PWRB in DSDT, but it looks like this is it:
 
   Scope (\)
    {
        Device (_SB.VBTN)
        {
            Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0C0C"))
            Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
            {
                One, 
                0x04
            })
        }
 
Anything I could try with that ?
Thanks again

I have found that checking "inject Nvidia" in cloverconfig fixes shutdown.

Only sleep is still wonky- it takes some minutes to wake up.

the pwr button does not wake, its unresponsive only when pressed some seconds does full/forced shutdown.

And the dreaded usb not ejectrd properly is still alive.

Geekbench 32 is around 13950, i have not managed to improve this using an ssdt over clovers auto generate p and c states.

Voodoo does sound and nic works.

So mostly its all fine - any advice on fixing usb and wakeup timing ?

No, the USB specs are:

 

Eleven USB 2.0: two on front panel, six on back panel, three internal (UDOC) on motherboard; eSATA: one rear; one serial; one parallel; two PS/2; one RJ-45; stereo line-in and headphone line-out on back panel; microphone and headphone connector on front; IEEE 1394a ports are provided with optional 1394 PCIe card 

 

Can you have a look at DSDT from Post 1 ?
