Andy Vandijck Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I have finished the new kernel with full PM support. In order to use this version of VoodooPState you will also need to install the new kernel and custom System.kext in /S/L/E (uses new rtc_clock_stepped and rtc_clock_stepping functions). It has no support for Intel i3/i5/i7 decently so I was unable to test it on my Intel rig, however... it did load with those 2 in place. I also included a new version of VoodooTSCSyncAMD (compiled for Mavericks). All was compiled by Xcode 5.0.1 (clang 5.0). Test it please and report back to me Sources are also included...

Dans1975 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hi I've been watching the development over the last few days.... are any of these test kernels applicable to an older AMD cpu? I am running Leopard/SL/L and ML and would like to work on Mav's as well. This is an AMD Althon X2 .

theconnactic Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hey, Andy! Nice work: will this enable us to get rid of SleepEnabler/AICPUPM/NullCPU? Or it will be still necessary for proper system sleep? All the best! Hi I've been watching the development over the last few days.... are any of these test kernels applicable to an older AMD cpu?

Mohamed Khairy Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 i am always on this state with this load to make mac usable my pc needs even 1 % cpu load but continuous load for this percentage can you make a loop on kernel that make it use small load on cpu like 1 or 2 % but continuous use of this precintage i think may this help !

theconnactic Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 So you just discovered the hive where this bug lives, Sinetek: a great accomplishment indeed. Way to go! Now it's perhaps possible to squash it! Anyway, why does this particular dylib cause so much havoc? CPUIDs? Missing opcodes?

Sinetek Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 no not really, it's just that this piece of code calls a 'callback' function, presumably back in the kernel, and somehow the link between the two fails to connect. Or something like that. it might also be a propagation error, whereby a failure in the driver sets in motion a series of failures, up to that dylib which then crashes. who knows 4 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/281450-mavericks-kernel-testing-on-amd-formerly-mountain-lion-kernel-testing-on-amd/page/155/#findComment-1963327 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaneee Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 So using Lion or even SL dylib in place wouldn't work? Edit: Or possibly from Mavericks DP1 if it worked then? DP1 file didn't change anything.

Duran Keeley Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hi MariusT All I got was a white screen and spinner by replacing GPUSupport.framework (Strange because I normally only get that with my nVidia) and just a plain white screen with a cursor in safe mode. libGPUSupportMercury.dylib (from /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/GPUSupport.framework/Versions/A/Libraries) is not in Lion or DP1 of ML, if this is not there in 10.8.4 then there is no QE/CI. I thought it was the libGPUSupportMercury.dylib since it was the only change from Lion. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/281450-mavericks-kernel-testing-on-amd-formerly-mountain-lion-kernel-testing-on-amd/page/155/#findComment-1963331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
