What was the cause?

 

[pastrychef]

What was the cause?

I had a redundant Acquantia patch that I forgot was there... It had been so long since Apple made any changes to it that I just got complacent...

Once both Acquantia patches were disabled, it worked as normal.

Is this Kernel > Patch > 2 > AQC107 Big Sur Patch: Should be disabled?

Yes. Hopefully, someone will find a new patch to get the AQC107 and AQC113 working again...

Does this Kernel patch from CaseySJ apply:

[SUCCESS] Gigabyte Designare Z390 (Thunderbolt 3) + i7-9700K + AMD RX 580

Good to know! Thinking of doing this since I've lost the ability to boot into Windows from the boot picker with VT-d off. Are there any downsides of applying these changes to the system? @dranose You can always test the change by putting the revised EFI on a thumb drive and booting from it...

Yes. Those should work but I have no way of testing... I don't have any hacks with PCI-e slots or Aquantia cards anymore...
