@Matgen84 To be honest, I'm clueless how this can happen - did you accidentially commit to the AUDK subrepo? Please upload the output of

git log > log.txt

from within the AUDK directory.

The issue should be gone if you clone fresh from the OC repo.

 

 

@Download-Fritz Done log.txt attached. Tell me what do you think. Please

 

You're right, the issue should be gone if I clone fresh from the OC repo. But I wonder why this issue is happened.

Try newer version, set medium manually, test different speeds and its a bit off-topic.

Anyone done Opencore on a Dell XPS 15 9560 ?  And get it to work?  I've been trying for two weeks with no results.

Have a look to Dortinia Guide for Laptop Kabylake. This github repository for 9570 (coffee lake) can be used as a working base: Dell XPS 9570

Hello

I've  AIO PC - Dell inspiron 2350 

and I've installed Catalina 10.15.17 using OPENCORE 0.6.2 debug version

 

and everything is going good with drivers 

• Audio: ALC668 - Working ( working alc Layout id: 20 )
• iGPU: HD4600 - Working
• Ethernet: RTL 8111 - Working
• Bluetooth: Working
• Wireless: Not working
• Touch screen: Not working

 

So I'm trying to enable Boot-chime with AudioDxe as explained here

 

So, after following this tuts and after the first restart of the pc

 

it hangs for about 1:45 minute on this screen 

PS : if I removed AudioDxe driver this screen ^ loads in less than a second then boot to os

 

Then it loads normally to the OS

 

But No Boot Chime Sound

 

After checking opencore debug file I found this part

 

106:823 00:001 OCAU: System volume is 68 (calculated from 48) - Success
106:824 00:001 OCAU: Matching PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1B,0x0)/VenMsg(A9003FEB-D806-41DB-A491-5405FEEF46C3,00000000)...
106:825 00:001 OCAU: 1/1 PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x3,0x0)/VenMsg(A9003FEB-D806-41DB-A491-5405FEEF46C3,00000000) (0 outputs) - Success
106:826 00:001 OCAU: Cannot find specified audio device - Not Found
106:827 00:001 OC: Audio connection failed - Not Found

 

So I've no clue what to do next !!!

 

I'm attaching a Screenshot from config.plist and IORegistryExplorer and gfxutility side by side showing why I'm choosing this edits

 

 

PS: I've tried AudioOut 0,1,2,3 - same results

 

And also I'm attaching config.plist file and opencore-2020-10-14-090509.txt debug file

 

So... what I miss here !!!!?

 

Thanks,

[AlvinGenius]

@AlvinGenius I have looked at your config.plist and made a few suggestion with this pic, take a look and hope it helps.

  Reveal hidden contents

 

Hello @eSaf

Thanks for your reply

 

and I'm attaching SS from Hackintool. and regarding ur suggestions, DONE 

 

Please check them and let me know where's the issue!

 

Thanks

@AlvinGenius - That is strange, your PCIe entry is correct as shown in your pic, but having another look at your config.plist I noticed a possible error as shown in this pic. Change the value I indicated to 0 (zero) save the change, reboot and clean the NVRAM and hopefully should be fixed along with my earlier recommendations. Let me know how it goes. Good luck.  

 

PS Turn your volume down before you restart incase you blow your speakers. 

 

Hello @eSaF

Thanks again for your reply

 

But I've said that already in my thread, I've tried 0,1,2 and 3 with no luck

 

I might have an clue what's wrong here !!

 

in config.plist I'm only using HD4600 iGPU, and this PC have a dGPU: AMD Radeon HD 8690A

 

So i've used the the other multimedia controller HDAE Device path that I found in Hackintool and put it in 

config.plist> UFEI > Audio > AudioDevice 

and added it too in DeviceProperties section using Open Configurator!! and I made a restart

 

and still stuck at this watchdog debug screen for 1 min and no Boot sound, and when I checked the opencore debug txt file I didn't found the "Audio connection failed - not found " error 

 

so maybe the boot chime audio should go through dGPU that's why I stuck in watchdog  debug and no sound !

If this the expected behavior, "Disabled" should be less secure than "Default", but booting from the snapshot (SecureBootModel=Disabled) isn't more secure than booting from /? Shouldn't be the opposite (Disabled/Default) or am I missing something?

This was "fixed" by apple in beta 10 

Now booting with SecureBootModel=Default returns kernel panic, "not possible to boot from the live fs in a release build".

Pity, it was good to be able to switch from snapshot to live fs with a config change only; I hope in the opencore magic to be able to do it again

@AlvinGenius - In that case I am out of ideas to effect a fix. The only thing I can suggest is try to source another member with the same platform and ask for help. Use Google there must be some successful builds on AIO PC - Dell inspiron 2350 out there I'm sure. Good luck.

 

@eSaF Thanks for your reply

 

So, no way to enable only audio from AMD Radeon HD 8690A.?

 

Even while using this screen as HDMI In from another PC, the audio isn't working in the other PC windows and it's AMD audio ...!!

[ghost8282]

Anybody having issues accessing recovery in big sur beta 10?

My case is that with prev-lang:kbd=aXQtSVQ6MjIz (italian lang+italian keyboard) trying to access recovery, after the apple logo and the progress bar I have a grey screen (the top menu "Language Chooser" rapidly flashes and then disappears).

If I empty the prev-lang:kbd in config.plist the language chooser menu appears correctly, if I choose "Italiano" again grey screen; choosing "English" works.

Also the italian keyboard layout choosen from the top right menu after the language selector seems to have issues, some keys are not mapped correctly.

 

It seems an apple bug.

Why sometimes is required to disable SecureBootModel in order to update macOS Big Sur betas? 

[ghost8282]

Because it boots from the snapshot, and it is not sometimes, but always (I think from beta 7-8).

@Andrey1970 @Download-Fritz

I found some issue in building edk2 on macos with xcode/clang.

I prefer to build myself OVMF_CODE.fd and OVMF_VARS.fd for my vm and just recently I found some strange behavior with my files.

Relevant bug I opened is here:
https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3006

 

To summarize xcode/clang (tested on catalina and big sur) has some issue with the RELEASE version (tested 202005 and 202008): my fd files are somehow "corrupted" when clang optimize the build in the RELEASE version.

DEBUG version and linux built versions (both RELEASE and DEBUG) have no issues.

 

Since in opencore Configuration.pdf there are instructions about how to build edk2 (3.3 Contribution) the RELEASE built version with XCODE5 may have some issue?

Not sure if and how to commit this?Is it relevant for opencore?

Edited October 16, 2020 by ghost8282

[mhaeuser]

@ghost8282 We recently had an issue where XCODE5 builds did not include HII sections where declared but CLANG38 builds of the same codebase did. I don't think that is the issue, just saying: Yes, there may be differences between toolchains. Honestly, I'm a bit tired of EDK II by now.

 

For debugging this issue, I can only think of two things.

1) You can try tightening optimisation step-by-step (i.e. O1, O2, ...) and once it breaks, try to find the offending module and bin-diff

2) You can try to find the offending code section by e.g. serial logs and compare the disassembly to the code for inadequate optimisations

 

EDK II has a lot of illegal casts and alignment issues, I could very well see some SSE-based optimisation or whatever breaking things.

Edited October 16, 2020 by Download-Fritz

I do not believe SSE is enabled when targeting EFI in Xcode. It is quite a bit complicated to discover it in such a complex piece OVMF is.

 

Basically you have a firmware that is built by a package, which is built from a number of drivers. These drivers consist of libraries. Libraries are built once for the whole package and are then linked into the firmware. So even though you can adjust the compilation flags of the drivers and the libraries separately, one library will always affect all the drivers, and 80% of driver code come from the libraries.

 

The only "working" solution I can think of is building the drivers separately (i.e. their DEBUG versions that are known to work) and then replace their counterparts via binary blobs. Here is an example inf loading the HFS+ driver: https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/blob/master/Legacy/BinDrivers/HfsPlus.inf. You just put the driver relative to this inf file and then include it in the firmware: https://github.com/acidanthera/OpenCorePkg/blob/0.6.2/OpenDuetPkg.fdf#L119.

 

By generating such .inf files with a script you should be able to quickly build the overrides for the whole OVMF DXE volume and put them here one by one: https://github.com/acidanthera/audk/blob/cbccf995920a28071f5403b847f29ebf8b732fa9/OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.fdf#L202. Once you figure out which driver or which set of drivers is at fault (try starting with a simple binary search: try that replacing all the DXE drivers with DEBUG overrides makes the RELEASE version work, then try replacing a half of them, and so on), you should be able to compare the two more precisely. Here we could be of some help I guess.

Hello guys,
installed Linux Manjaro on a partition
and in my EFI Folder with OC 0.6.2 I have a Manjaro folder with grubx64.efi, and in the OC boot menu what is shown to me is an EFI icon and by booting it I can access Manjaro, but some way that does not appear the EFI partition, but the Linux Manjaro? I hope it was clear here.
