The KP when inject legacy AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement kexts.

[gujiangjiang]

I'm using ThinkPad x230 running macOS Sonoma with intel Core I5-3320M Ivybridge.

In Ventura, I'm using [XCPM] and the patch works fine both Clover and OpenCore.
But when I upgrade to Sonoma the -xcpm kernel patch doesn't work anymore so I revert to legacy AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement to work.
https://github.com/5T33Z0/OC-Little-Translated/tree/main/01_Adding_missing_Devices_and_enabling_Features/CPU_Power_Management/CPU_Power_Management_(Legacy)#re-enabling-acpi-power-management-in-macos-ventura

But I tried many times it aways kp when boot. I tried delete SSDT-CpuPm and other tried but have nothing works it still kp when boot.

I tried OpenCore later and the AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext works. The kexts works fine with OpenCore I don't know why cause this.

Does it related with the order of kext inject?
Here is the kexts folder with Sonoma in Clover:

Here is the kexts order in OpenCore:

I don't know what cause the kp. My Clover and OpenCore shared same DSDT/Patches/Kexts/SMBIOS and Clover can inject any kexts with no problem but [AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext].

[gujiangjiang]

I found a clue but not sure.

I boot Sonoma with -v using Clover and OpenCore.
I shot the screen and I found that when Clover boot have ACPI Error but OpenCore boot with no error, the Clover and OpenCore shared same SSDT and same ACPIPatch, The ACPI error in Clover is [cpupm]. I don't know if related with DSDT?

Here is the -v with OpenCore, No ACPI errors.

Here is the -v with Clover, have ACPI Error about CPUPM.

PS:
Beside. I found Clover DSDT have another bug in SSDT Drop.
I Using SSDT Drop before but it with no use.
I tried both TableID and LengthID but still no use.
When I boot into macOS and found the [Dropped SSDT] still exist in System ACPI.

However the OpenCore with no bug in Drop SSDT. OpenCore can Drop SSDT successfully with no problem.

Now I just can guess if [AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext] load failed is related with ACPI Error in Clover?

[gujiangjiang]

New Found.

acidanthera/bugtracker#969

I read this topic and I found it happed in Clover.

I found when I Drop SSDT-CpuPm and boot into macOS, System ACPI can see CpuPm(Droped Failed) and CpuCst(?).

This is strange. CpuCst Is internal Table for CpuPm why they show in SystemACPi when I set Drop SSDT CpuPm. However, The OpenCore will not see CpuPm and CpuCst when I Droped CpuPm.

Does this is the difference between OpenCore and Clover in original ACPI Dump?

[gujiangjiang]

I tried Drop CpuPm and all of it's internal SSDTs like blew:

Sadly it still KP when boot with AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement .

I looked into Clover boot.log and I find this:

Clover boot .log show it Dropped CpuPm and Cpu0Ist Successfully but actually only Cpu0Ist dropped successfully, The CpuPm dropped failed and have a SSDT called CpuCst?

I delete AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement and boot into macOS and I found it still have CpuPm and CpuCst in System ACPI.

I guess the Clover can't Drop CpuPm and its internal SSDT? but with OpenCore I haven't drop any SSDT and it works fine, and the System ACPI can't see CpuCst.

Now I am sure the KP with AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement related with [CpuCst ] but Clover load it by default and have no method to drop it.

Any method to solve this bug.

[gujiangjiang]

Now I'm using OpenCore with AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.

Here is the SystemACPI in OpenCore with no SSDT Dropped:

We can see the OpenCore only load CpuPm and Cpu0Ist, No CpuCst loaded.

Clover load CpuCst is an internal SSDT, CpuCst can't be loaded separete, it only been used by CpuPm.

This is a bug, and hope to fix.

Thanks Slice.

[SergeySlice]

Did you take into account that Clover generates own tables CpuPm and CpuCst?

How to avoid clover to generate its own CpuPm and CpuCst

I can’t find way to disable clover to add these two ssdt in system ACPI

[gujiangjiang]

@SergeySlice
I found Clover generate C and P state by default when have no options in config.

I tried to add
` SSDT

	<dict>
		<key>Generate</key>
		<dict>
			<key>CStates</key>
			<false/>
			<key>PStates</key>
			<false/>
		</dict>
	</dict>`

to config and boo into macOS found CpuPm and CpuCst disappeared.

However. When I add AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement to Kexts folder it still boot in kernel panic .

Strange....

[gujiangjiang]

I test the kexts order in OpenCore, I found no matter order of kexts loading it's always works fine with no Kernel Panic.

I don't know how to solve this.

Here is the boot.log.

May be your MSR 0xE2 is locked and Clover did not unlock it automatically?

[gujiangjiang]

@SergeySlice
Yes the MSR0xE2 locked but it passed by clover and can see log in clover.log.
I have checked [AppleIntelCPUPM] in Clvoer and it works fine in Catalina which needed AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.

Does the MSR 0xE2 patch changed in Ventura and Sonoma?
In OpenCore i selected [AppleCpuPmCfgLock] and works fine.

acidanthera/OpenCorePkg#448
acidanthera/OpenCorePkg@77d02b3

OpenCore have some commit about this.

[jief666]

These commits are now imported into Clover. Could you try the latest version : CloverX64-2024-01-04-10-59-02-0094e0c-jief.zip ?
You can also compile yourself the master branch.

[gujiangjiang]

@jief666 i will try later.
Thanks.

[SergeySlice]

VirtualSMC is not compatible with Clover. Replace it by FakeSMC with plugins.
