[Guide] Native Power Management for Laptops

[RehabMan]

apologies, TLDR ....

Has the whole 'csrutil disable'/'csrutil enable' discussion taken place re deleting sleep image in Mojave?

Just wondering if the guide can be updated to include this info ...

great guide btw; only 1/10th the way through it

Off-topic.

I have a problem with lowest frequency, on AppleIntelInfo say my CPU Low Frequency Mode 400MHz, but CPU P-States just stuck on 13 (is that mean 1300MHz?) my notebook produce more heat than usual, hope anyone can help me.
i'm using Acer E5-476G with i3-6006U processor, this i provided AppleIntelInfo and SSDT.dsl generated by ssdtPRGen
i have confirmed X86PlatformPlugin running on CPU0 with CPUPStates same as SSDT.aml from ssdtPRGen
Thanks

edit
solved, just need to change LFM of MacBook Pro 13,2 with FreqVectorEdit by Piker-Alpha, and now my notebook can touch 400MHz as stated by the CPU..
maybe @RehabMan can use this information to edit the first page, wondering if someone having the same problem... Thanks for your tutorial, great work!

frequency always remains constant

Your AppleIntelInfo output contradicts your claim:

CPU P-States [ 12 (13) 28 29 30 31 ] iGPU P-States [ (18) ]

 

[re23071998]

It shows pstates:

CPU P-States [ 5 6 7 (8) 9 10 11 12 13 14 16 17 19 34 ] iGPU P-States [ ]

what's that mean?

what's that mean?

It means your statement "frequency always remains constant" is proved false by AppleIntelInfo.kext output.

[re23071998]

my problem is this:

battery life still bad, my CPU idling at 2.4w, I saw other people with the same CPU can idle at 1.8w. and I don't see DRAM on Intel Power Gadget

here's the output from appleintelinfo:

I can't get my hackintosh to use idle frequency at 0.8GHz (for battery life optimization purposes).

I used to achieve that only after waking up from sleep when I had custom ssdt.aml in /EFI/CLOVER/ACPI/PATCHED folder, but I was advised to not use it on my build, so I deleted it.

I use X86PlatformPluginInjector.kext with edited .plist

Sleep is unstable. Sometimes I get a kernel panic when waking up from sleep.

Could you please help me to get stable sleep and 0.8GHz idle frequency?
