The script is only for most 5th-10th generation CPU yet. I will try to add support for more models if needed.
The script can modify low frequency mode and energy performance preference, and use ResourceConverter.sh to generate customized CPUFriendDataProvider.kext
.
By using this script, no file under the System folder will be edited. If you are not happy with the modification, just remove CPUFriend*.kext
from /CLOVER/kexts/Other/
and restart.

, often injected by SSDT-PLUG or SSDT-XCPMNOTE: It is recommended to disable CPUFriend.kext
and CPUFriendDataProvider.kext
before a macOS upgrade. You need to re-generate CPUFriendDataProvider.kext
whenever you update to a new macOS version; otherwise, you may suffer from bad PM or even kernel panic.
