Hi, thank you very much for the pull request (I really appreciate that). However, I'm sorry to say I wouldn't merge this, as I'm planning to remove Clover support and merge opencore branch to master. I have made some big changes in opencore branch, so please wait for that. I will merge some of your changes manually (e.g. layout-id). Meanwhile, I have some questions for you:
NormalizeHeaders
to boot? If not, there's no need to enable it.Hello, thank you for responding. I actually changed the OpenCore branch, the clover one remains unchanged. I see now that I have mistaken when selecting pull requests and selected merge to your master, sorry for that
NormalizeHeaders option is used to enable proper sleeping and native hibernation, it is actually handled pretty good in OC
Hibernation is actually achieved in a different ways in mac os: there is no «Hibernation» term here. Instead, there is a «Safe Sleep» – the machine firstly enters normal sleep, without cutting power supply to ram and other components, then the RAM gets copied to sleepimage (usually /var/vm/sleepimage), while RAM is still powered on. Next, after a certain time, Mac OS enters S4 sleep a.k.a hibernation, the problem with hackintoshes is that either mac os or bootloader can't make S4 boot, loading the sleepimage, however, with certain tweaks it's possible. The usual tweaks include fixing power management, fixing TSC registry (in my case) and having a correct ports mapping.
TL;DR: OC uses RTC and NVRAM to detect whether mac os is in hibernated state and correctly executes S4 boot, you can read about it in official configuration.pdf
I don't think NormalizeHeaders
has anything to do with sleep and hibernation. It's only for fixing SSDT headers. If you can boot without it, you shouldn't need it.
I have created a new config file for your model here. I also rewrite scripts. Now you can run ./download.sh
then ./build.sh
and it will build EFI folder for you.
Please test it and create a new pull request. This should be closed as it's outdated.
And please don't pollute the config with Hardware ACPI dump
.
I do believe, that hibernation and sleep did not work for me without NormalizeHeaders, will test this a bit later, too busy with studies rn.
Ok, I will enable NormalizeHeaders
as it does no harm.
Still, can you tell me how hibernation works for you on macOS? I have only used hibernation on Windows, so I don't know much about it on macOS.
It just sleeps, for pmset I use the following options:
System-wide power settings:
VACTDisabled 0
Currently in use:
standby 1
womp 1
halfdim 1
hibernatefile /var/vm/sleepimage
proximitywake 1
powernap 1
gpuswitch 2
networkoversleep 1
disksleep 10
standbydelayhigh 21600
sleep 1 (sleep prevented by coreaudiod, coreaudiod, apfsd)
autopoweroffdelay 43200
hibernatemode 3
autopoweroff 1
ttyskeepawake 1
displaysleep 15 (display sleep prevented by zoom.us)
tcpkeepalive 1
highstandbythreshold 40
standbydelaylow 10800
Basically, this means that when I close the LID, Mac OS firstly sleeps (fast wake when LID open), after 21600 (when charge is above 40%) or after 10800 seconds it enters «deep sleep» – powers off ram, saving it’s contents to /var/vm/sleepimage
, then, after 43200 seconds, the PC powers off most of it’s elements, to boot next time from sleep image.
Note that during «phase 2» the wake from sleep is longer, and after «hibernation wake» the programms open up just like after powering off (but actually restoring their contents after a short amount of time).
Note that using safe sleep is slightly better than normal sleep, as if the power loss occurs, the things you’ve been working on aren’t lost.
Also, you can completely turn off hibernation
by setting via pmset
the hibernatemode
to 0 – the system will use only normal sleep.
Also note, that Apple has broken Intel Graphics drivers a bit, so 1) There is no way to enable DRM content play in iTunes, as certain registers are not getting accessed for decoding data streams, and 2) after sleep/hibernation it is common to see GFX capped at certain frequency, usually the same with that, specified for your iGPU on ark.intel.com.
Thanks, I'll update the configs to properly support hibernation,
I do not promise that it will work, need futher testing, as it could potentially panic right after wake
By default hibernatemode is 3, so I think it shouldn't break anything
Just tested booting without NormalizeHeaders
– did not succeed in it :(
So I guess UX430UAR needs that option
OK, I have enabled NormalizeHeaders
. Could you please test master
branch? Create a file named smbios.txt
in src
, similar to smbios-sample.txt
, then put your serial in it. Run ./download.sh && ./build.sh
and it will build EFI folder for you.
I will test as soon as I am able to, thank you
I made some wizardy with configs, turns out that we don’t need NormalizeHeaders
and any other quirks in ACPI
The thing that was interfering with these options is DisableLinkedJettison
in kernel section, so we should turn it off
DisableLinkedJettison
is a better replacement for keepsyms=1
. It's necessary on Big Sur.
Can you boot with it turned on?
Add UX430UA-R config part, enables hibernation, proper sleep and AppleALC correct codec patch
