muis87 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Hello When I use the tool SSDPrGen, it generates a lot of files in: ~/Library/ssdtPRGen/ Can I use the DSDT.aml for Clover, which is also generated or only a SSDT ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muis87 Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 The tool does not generate any (patched) DSDT that differs from the BIOS table. As such, there would be no value whatsoever in copying, as is, an extracted DSDT table in the Clover APCI/patched folder. The bootloader and the OS are perfectly able to access/read/load the original table located in the computer's BIOS. One only places/uses a DSDT in the Clover ACPI/patched folder if it's exactly that: a patched version. Yes, but can I need to change something in my DSDT, and can I used the generated DSDT by that tool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the DSDT generated by SsdPRGEn the same as the one generated by Clover (by pressing F4 ?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muis87 Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 These are extracted tables, yes. They're not generated per sé, in the sense that they are not created by the tool as the CPU-specific SSDT is. You can indeed start from that raw DSDT table as a basis for patching. Ok just to confirm: the DSDT.aml you get from Clover (with F4) OR the DSDT.aml you get from SsdPRgen , are just BIOS readouts.. And if it makes no matter if i put this DSDT.aml in the EFI -> patched folder. ? (its the same) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It uses them to determine in what scope the Processor objects are defined (typically in _PR). The tables in ioreg are those injected by Clover and are NOT the same as those extracted by Clover F4. Clover F4 files in ACPI/origin are native files. Clover injected ACPI files are affected by content in your config.plist, content in ACPI/patched, and built-in things Clover does to ACPI files as part of booting macOS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
