FakePCIID: Broadcom BCM57XX network OOB

[ktu]

... With the old ionetworkfamily.kext from Sierra now everything is ok...

Hi! The problem is equal: in El Capitan in LE (but not in clover) FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_BCM577XX_as_BCM57765.kext works fine. After update to High Sierra ethernet was disappeared. Kexts doesn't work in LE, SLE, clover. After clean install problem was not solved. Then i used IONetworkFamily.kext from El Capitan. Network comes back, but the system some times friezes - i don't know how to find the reason.
my card is

• Broadcom NetLink BCM57785 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:16b5] -- Confirmed

BCM57XX on OS X

A wide range of Broadcom network adapters can be supported OOB on OS X, without any kext patches required.
This will allow installing OS X updates without losing network functionality due to the patches changing.

It currently supports the following Broadcom devices:

• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5700 Gigabit Ethernet [14e4:1644]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1645]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5702 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1646]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5703 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1647]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5717 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1655]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5717 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1665]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5718 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1656]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5719 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1657]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5725 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1643]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5727 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:16f3]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5761 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet [14e4:1688]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5762 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1687]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM57760 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1690]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM57764 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1642]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM57767 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1683]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM57781 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:16b1]
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM57782 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:16b7]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM57785 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:16b5] -- Confirmed
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM57786 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:16b3] -- Confirmed
• Broadcom NetXtreme BCM57787 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1641]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM57788 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1691]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM57790 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1694]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM57791 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:16b2]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM57795 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:16b6]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM5785 Gigabit Ethernet [14e4:1699]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM5785 Fast Ethernet [14e4:16a0]
• Broadcom NetLink BCM5787M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express [14e4:1693]
• Broadcom Network Adapter [14e4:1689]

Note: These devices were obtained from the Broadcom Tigon3 driver and should be compatible.
I believe more devices could be supported in the future, depending on feedback.

Installation

Use Clover kext injection or place the attached kexts (FakePCIID.kext and FakePCIID_BCM577XX_as_BCM57765.kext) in /System/Library/Extensions and rebuild the kext cache.

Ensure your AppleBCM5701Ethernet.kext is vanilla and any previous Clover patches for the BCM577XX are removed.

Information & Download

For now the initial version is attached to this post, however the home of FakePCIID should have this injector available in the future.

Troubleshooting

In case it does not work, it would be helpful providing an IORegistry dump to debug issues.

Is there any confirmed success that these kexts work in Big Sur? I've tried Clover injection and install to L/E. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Disregard: After some tinkering I found out my issue is not with these drivers, but instead the fact that I can't edit the AppleBCM5701Ethernet plugin inside IONetworkingFamily.kext in S/L/E in Big Sur unlike previous macOS versions.
