OK so here's the situation : The only SSDT-x that have been patched from ACPI/origin are SSDT-8.aml and SSDT-9.aml (respectively for IGPU/PNLF injection and Optimus deactivation). All others SSDT-x are untouched and have just been disassembled with iasl -da -dl -fe refs.txt *.aml command then re-assembled in .aml. I only have fixed SSDT-0.dsl so I can compile and save it in .aml.

So I'm a bit lost. What SSDT's should I rename and how should I named them to?

The set of SSDTs you should have in ACPI/patched and their order in SortedOrder is clearly described in post #9.

You should not rename any SSDTs.
 
Maybe I didn't made myself clear.

When I talked about SSDT-1.aml in post #10, I said that this was where I applied the PNLF patch. But actually, the SSDT-1.aml wasn't the SSDT-1.aml from ACPI/origin, it was the SSDT-8.aml renamed as SSDT-1.aml.

Then, you suggested to rename it as SSDT-PNLF.aml which I did.

Use SSDT-PNLF.aml as the name.
SSDT-1.aml should correspond only to SSDT-1.aml from ACPI/origin.

So when I set the SortedOrder, I thought logical to set it before the SSDT-9.aml.

But If I understand correctly, there's no need to rename it as SSDT-PNLF.aml after all and I just can leave it as SSDT-8.aml and set the SortedOrder like this :

DSDT.aml
SSDT.aml
SSDT-0.aml
SSDT-1.aml
SSDT-6.aml
SSDT-7.aml
SSDT-8.aml
SSDT-9.aml

any additional SSDTs (such as SSDT-PNLF.aml to implement backlight control)

Actually, there's no additional SSDT in my case, right?

DO NOT rename SSDTs.
DO NOT apply any PNLF patch (the only PNLF device should be the one in SSDT-PNLF.aml).

I never suggested any renames.
SSDT-PNLF.aml is compiled SSDT-PNLF.dsl as per guide:

Also, your config.plist has the 9mb cursor bytes patch disabled. That is a mistake.

I thought this was unnecessary with IntelGraphicsFixup.kext.

Anyway, I think it's better to start over and will follow your links.

Thanks for the help!

I see nothing in the IntelGraphicsFixup.kext source that patches the Azul framebuffer for 9mb cursor bytes.
 
I started from scratch and hopefully, ACPI files and SortedOrder should now be OK. Let me know if I made something wrong because it didn't make any difference.

Also, I'd like to understand something : why is there a Brightness Fix for Haswell/Broadwell in your repo if we have to use a separate SSDT-PNLF.aml?

ACPI not patched correctly. No "OS Check Fix" patch applied. SSDT-XOSI.aml has no effect without _OSI->XOSI patch.

You should use OsxAptioFixDrv-64.efi not OsxAptioFix2Drv-64.efi. If you need OsxAptioFix2, you may also need slide=0 kernel flag.

Also, your kextcache output shows kexts are not installed correctly.
All kexts you need must be installed to the system volume.
config.plist/SystemParameters/InjectKexts should be set "Detect".
Kext injection is only for the installer and recovery partition.

It is for use with ACPIBacklight.kext on older versions of macOS/OS X.
If you're curious, read the brightness guide:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-patching-dsdt-ssdt-for-laptop-backlight-control.152659/
 
Still no change.
