How to Enable Native CPU/IGPU Power Management on macOS [Clover/OpenCore]

An EliteMacx86 Exclusive Guide - This guide covers the implementation of Native CPU and IGPU Power Management on macOS using Clover and OpenCore.

Overview


macOS native power management delivers the best performance and efficiency. There are several ways to activate macOS native power management. The native power management doesn't require any specific BIOS settings. Although, it is recommended to have the optimal configuration as described in the guide below



Please note that power management is not mandatory. The results are not serious when there's no power management implemented. The performance is similar, however, there can be higher temperatures, using more power, and improper sleep. The system will always perform at its peak and will not switch to idle mode during no load.

For more information on Sandy Bridge-E and Ivy Bridge-E power management, refer to the guide linked below

For Discrete GPU Power Management, refer to the guide linked below

Requirements


  • Correct UEFI/BIOS Settings
  • The CPU clock should be set to default, running at stock speeds.
  • A Correct System Definition/SMBIOS
  • Original/Native Power Management Kexts in S/L/E.
CPU Power Management


STEP 1: Adding PM SSDT

To enable CPU Power management, you'll need to add "SSDT-PLUG" to your configuration.

1. Download the OpenCore boot loader from the downloads section of this forum.
2. Copy SSDT-PLUG.aml from Docs>AcpiSamples>Binaries
3. Mount your ESP

For Clover:
If you're using Clover, copy SSDT-PLUG to EFI/Clover/ACPI/patched

For OpenCore:
If you're using OpenCore, copy SSDT-PLUG to EFI/OC/ACPI. You'll also need to add the ACPI entry in ACPI>Add section of your config.plist

IGPU Power Management


STEP 2: Rename GPU Device

To enable GPU Power Management, you'll need to rename the ACPI. WhateverGreen automatically renames it, but it is still recommended to have the renames.

1. Depending on the Bootloader you use, add the following patch in ACPI section of your config.plist. For Clover, it is Acpi>DSDT. For OpenCore, it is ACPI>Patch.

NOTE:
  • Thinkpad rename is mostly required by Lenovo Laptops. Should not be used if your Laptop does not have PCI0.VID device. Both Thinkpad renames should be used together.
  • On a few Motherboards, including Laptops, the GPU rename can lead to still waiting for a device error. If you encounter such an issue, disable this rename. This rename works better when the ACPI is patched.

STEP 2: Restart your System
After performing all the above steps, restart your system for the applied changes to take effect.

Verifying CPU Power Management

The next step is to verify whether CPU Power Management is working or not.

Download IOReg and open it.

1. Verify "plugin-type" property. The plugin-type property is located under the CPU node.
2. Verify loading of "X86PlatformPlugin." The X86PlatformPlugin is located under CPU node.

Verifying GPU Power Management


The next step is to verify whether GPU Power Management is working or not.

Download IOReg and open it.

1. Verify "Machine" property. The Machine property is located under AGPMController which is under CPU0 node.
2. Verify loading of "IGPU." The IGPU property is located under Machine.

3. Verify loading of "AGPM" under IGPU node.

Testing Power Management



After restarting, you can test the power management. To test the power management, you need to use AppleIntelInfo.kext. You can either compile AppleIntelInfo.kext using XCode or can download from the post in the attachment.

1. Download and extract AppleIntelInfo.kext to your Desktop
2. Open Terminal

3. Type:
Code:
sudo kextutil /Users/yourusername/Desktop/AppleIntelInfo.kext
When promoted, enter your password.

Note:
If you get an error while loading kext, follow the steps below.


Code:
sudo chown -R root:wheel ~/Desktop/AppleIntelInfo.kext
Code:
sudo chmod -R 755 ~/Desktop/AppleIntelInfo.kext

Continue from the step 3.
4. Type:

Code:
sudo cat /tmp/AppleIntelInfo.dat
When promoted, enter your password.

5. The power states will be shown in the Terminal.
6. Now, do some benchmark to stress the system.
7. Recheck the power states.

Using Intel Power Gadget Tool
Install Intel Power Gadget.
Leave the system idle for a minute.
After a minute or two, start doing tasks on your system. You can use a benchmarking software to increase the CPU load.

Additional


On Laptop, you'll need to use some additional steps for a complete power management.
On Hackintoshes, the hiberation is not supported. So it's recommended to disable it.

Code:
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0
sudo rm /var/vm/sleepimage
sudo mkdir /var/vm/sleepimage

Also, it's a good idea to disable the other hibernation related functions.

Code:
sudo pmset -a standby 0
sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0

Note:
  • When updating your system, make sure that the hibernation is disabled as the system updates re-enables it.

Problem Reporting


Details :
  1. macOS version
  2. CPU/Motherboard model
  3. Copy of IOReg
  4. Output of AppleInfo.dat

Files:
  • For Clover, compress EFI/Clover, exclude the themes folder.
  • For OpenCore, compress EFI/OC.
Notes:
  • Do not include complete EFI folder.
  • Put all files in a folder with your name, compress files as Zip and attach files using site attachments only.

Your IOReg proves that your PM is working. The guide states how to check if your PM is working. But you should use a new SMBIOS for MacBookPro14,1

Looks like you did not used the system. As mentioned, after loading the kext, you must run a bunch of task so that the CPU goes to it's full speed.

Looks good. The PM is working and all the cores are being utilised and CPU runs at it's full speed. Complete 4.0GHz
