Going forward with OpenCore 0.54, none of these patches are needed anymore.... all covered by the built-in quirks.

 

 

Hi Mike Ranger, how I use quirks instead patches? Thanks...

@lucke enabling ones your cpu/motherboard need

flag quirks you need in proper opencore config.plist section

 

try also to read from page 22 of configuration.pdf (you can find easily in 0.5.4 release zip doc folder)

For the record, my Asus X99 Deluxe dies with a kernel panic early during boot

* Asus X99 Deluxe (original, i.e. not II)

* i7-5820k

* OpenCore 0.5.5

* Settings according to https://github.com/khronokernel/Opencore-Vanilla-Desktop-Guide/blob/master/config-HEDT/haswell-e.md

* Catalina installer and Hight Sierra both panic

The last non-panic log line is "VirtualSMC efend: @ no extra rtc memory is present for key erase", this seems normal. The panic backtrace is exceedingly uninformative...

These are the Kernel Quirks I used.

As I said, no manual kernel patches needed anymore.

 

If everything else is setup right, system will boot.

Thanks, I tried that but same panic. I also tried FakeSMC instead of VirtualSMC, with the same outcome (except that the last log line before the panic is now from FakeSMC). 

 

I also tried nmano's EFI from 3 comments up and I can boot with that. And boy, its chock-full of custom patches ;-) Not sure if its one of those or some OC 0.5.6 fix, will probably wait for the release and then try again.

Add VoodooTSCSync.kext     

Add npci=0x2000

I tried all combinations of npci=0x2000 and the "Above 4G decoding" bios setting to no avail.

 

I also tried the kexts from nmano's  EFI (which include VoodooTSCSync.kext) on my OC 0.5.5 config and that didn't change anything with the panic either.

Hello All.

 

Been following this thread for the last couple of days.. Learning a lot but still confused here and there.   

My System as follows.

 

Gigabyte X99P-SLI

Intel 6800K

32GB Crucial Ram

Gigabyte Windforce R9 390 8GB

 

Had success before  10.15.3, but it was buggy.  Maybe some has a system close to mine can work together to get a fully stable system up.

Interesting i read the thread this is the same motherboard and CPU that i use, I haven’t upgraded form 10.13.6 because my system is stable with Clover. I’ll keep and eye and ear out, maybe we can work together but also I haven’t got much time at the moment .

Hi! Thanx for great topic! My build is ASUS X99 Deluxe + Intel 5960x + GT 740. I used attached EFI from the first post. Everything seems to boot properly, but in the end I stuck on gIOScreenLockState 3... I know this is GPU related, but can anyone tell me please where to dig? Thanks!

p.s. CSM disabled in BIOS.

# CSM Enabled

 

nmano, thank you for replying! I've tried to boot with AppleGraphicsDevicePolicy patch and CSM enabled (UEFI+Legacy and just UEFI) - same gIOScreenLockState 3 error. Btw I've 2 monitors, one connected through HDMI, second - DVI, so the only changes was after enabling CSM is that POST messages and OC started on DVI monitor instead of HDMI.

Okay, I finally booted.

What I did to run ASUS x99 Deluxe5960x + GT 740:

 

1. Compiled latest release of OC

2. Used SampleFull.plist as template

3. Added VBoxHfs.efi and ApfsDriverLoader.efi to Drivers folder (kept all defaults)

3. Added custom SSDT patches to ACPI

4. Added proper Kexts to Kexts directory

 

in config.plist:

5. Booter>DeviceProperties>Add - removed entry with ig-platform

6. Kernel>Patch - inserted custom 5960x patch and xcpm_bootstrap patch, thats all. + Enabled AppleXcpmExtraMsrs and DisableIoMapper (for VT-d) in Kernel>Quirks

7. NVRAM>Add> boot-args - added npci=0x2000, nvda_drv set to 31

 

So what I think the reason of black screen was nvda_drv, which is not 31 in config, presented in first post of this topic... But I'm not sure.

 

Any way now I've got fully working system with proper CPU PM. On next week I'll polish all settings and will post my EFI here.

Thank you!

Hello fellow Asus X99 Deluxe user ;-) 

 

For the record I got the same black screen with WiFi errors (AppleKeyStore: operation failed ...) with nmano's EFI. But when booting an older High Sierra install I can at that point ssh into the box over WiFi, so its just the GPU not turning on. But the OS is basically working, and the console messages are apparently not that important. I'm in the process of switching from HS+nVidia to Catalina+Radeon but haven't gotten any signal out of the Radeon card yet. Looking forward to trying your EFI ;-)
