Thank you for your submissions!

Should that perhaps be X5680? I'm not aware of an X5980 CPU...


Should that perhaps be 2x W3690? I'm not aware of a 3960 CPU, other than the i7-3960X, which I'm pretty sure won't fit in an LGA1366 socket...
W3xxx processors have only one functional QPI link, can't be used on a dual CPU tray. W3xxx are always single CPU processors.

A Request:

Now that we're starting to see some results, I'd like to start compiling them in an orderly fashion, so that we can begin looking for patterns. As such, I'd ask the following:

Once you've done your testing and settled onlatebloom=/lb_range=/lb_debug= values that work for you, please post those values along with a detailed description of the system as it was tested. (If you're still experimenting, please wait until you're satisfied before posting all this). For system details, I'd like to see the following, in whatever format you choose (I'll be collecting them and reformatting them into a table in Post #2 as time permits, so use whatever format is easiest for you):
  • Actual model (e.g. MacPro 3,1; MacPro 4>5,1; etc.). While there should be no difference whatsoever between a 5,1 and a 4,1 that's flashed to 5,1, please specify if it's flashed (e.g. 4>5,1 or 4.5,1 or similar).
    SPECIAL DISPENSATION: While this is not a Hackintosh forum, nor is this a Hackintosh thread, I'll welcome any Hackintosh results here, since those could conceivably shed more light on the issues at hand. If you post Hackintosh results, please provide as much detail as possible about your system (motherboard, overclocking, any special hardware, etc.). Please note that this invitation applies only to Hackintosh results; if the thread devolves into Hackintosh-specific discussions or gets noisy, I will ask the moderators to take action.
  • BootROM version
  • CPU and count (e.g. 1x X5680, 2x X5675, etc.)
  • Memory count, size, and speed (e.g. 4x2GB 1066, 8x8GB 1333, etc.)
  • WiFi (e.g. none, factory, BCM94322MC, BCM94360CD, etc.)
  • Bluetooth (e.g. none, factory, USB (model info), combo (w/upgraded WiFi), etc.)
  • Disks (internal, including optical drives) - physical, location, logical/formats (no need for size of each partition), e.g.
    • Seagate ST3000DM008 3TB, Bay 2, EFI/APFS Mojave
    • SanDisk SDSSDA 240GB SSD, ODD 1, EFI/HFS+ Sierra/NTFS Windows
    • Samsung 970 EVO 1TB NVMe, HighPoint 7101A, EFI/APFS Big Sur
    • (etc.)
      (Please include the name or version of the OS that formatted the partition (if known) - the APFS format has changed over time, and older APFS-capable MacOS versions can't read some newer APFS volumes.
      There's no need for any personal details, serial numbers, partition sizes, disk names, notation of bootable vs. data drives, etc.)
  • NVMe devices (cards/location/blades), e.g.
    • kryoM.2 evo, slot 4, 1x WD Blue SN550 1TB
    • Sonnet M.2 FUS-SSD-4X4-E3, slot 3, 4x Toshiba XG6-P 2TB
    • (etc.)
  • PCIe devices/location:
    • AMD RX570 4GB, slot 1
    • Sonnet Allegro USB3-4PM-E, slot 4
    • SIIG NN-E38012-S3, slot 2
    • (etc.)
  • USB devices (including external storage):
    • Apple wired keyboard
    • Logitech wireless mouse (Unifying interface)
    • 128GB USB3 flash drive
    • External USB2 Blu-Ray burner
    • (etc.)
If you're lacking some details, or can't access the hardware to get them, just include whatever details you can. The more information we have, the more likely we'll be able to find useful patterns (assuming any exist).

So, as an example modeled loosely on my own system, I might post:

  • 32GB USB3 flash drive, Windows FAT32
  • Sabrent USB3/SATA3 adapter
    • Inland Professional 256GBM 256GB SSD, EFI/APFS High Sierra


I may or may not include username attribution in the public table; if you'd rather remain anonymous, just PM me your results, let me know you'd like anonymity, and I'll include your results without attribution.

Thanks in advance. If you're unable or unwilling to get that level of detail, please post whatever you can, and I'll include your results as best I'm able.
@Syncretic - should you also collect OC Version?

OpenCore version would have little effect as it's run under UEFI space and should have little impact version to version with kernel space. A more useful data point would be what kexts are being injected with OpenCore in addition to latebloom, as this can help correlate kexts that are conflicting with latebloom or hampering the boot process

@Syncretic - another thing I noticed. I booted three times in a row from a cold boot with 100, 20 and had hangs. I thought something was wrong as I didn't see the hook message. I realized I had set debug=0 (had been running with it on). I changed that to debug on and had two straight cold boot successes. I will test some more but thought I would mention that.

Just to add, another thing that is useless is to report the spoofed EFI release. The real one matters, not the spoofed one.

(Per your suggestion, I added "OC version" to the template; @khronokernel makes a good point about its likely irrelevance, but at this point, every data point is welcome.)

If lb_debug=1 works better than lb_debug=0, you might consider trying a slightly higher latebloom= value (add maybe 5-10ms). The only difference is the amount of time consumed by a call to printf() (plus related screen-handling overhead).

I have updated Post #1 with latebloom version 0.19, which adds support for Monterey Beta 3. If you're not running Monterey Beta 3, there is no need to update/upgrade the kext; there is no new functionality added in this version.

My thanks to @Ausdauersportler for noticing the problem and providing some quick testing.

My best results and system:

latebloom=120 lb_range=40 lb_debug=1 kext-dev-mode=1 -v

Last three warm reboots successful on Monterey Beta 2 (21A5248p)! started with 100, 20, tried other numbers with little success especially if I 250, 500, 1000 with no randomization, and tried a variation of 100/20 with 120/40 and am every pleased with the results. This seem to give a great variation / stagger start on the PCIe delays. Randomization seems to work best on Monterey. Will test 11.5 GM when it's out.

I'm confused, and I'm guessing I'm not the only one...
The W3690 is the "Single Processor" variant of the X5690, you cannot have two of them in a dual cpu board.

those terminal commands output amount and type of processors

Code:
sysctl -n hw.packages
sysctl -n machdep.cpu.brand_string

@Syncretic - So another interesting item - from a run with 100/20 150/20 [Edit - the verbose output doesn't lie and I had moved to 150 after several failures at 100] and a hang I had at least one “loop” out of order in the verbose output. There is PCI LOOP # 63 then 65, 66, 67, and 68 and then 64 which was where it hung. I ended up with the no boot symbol.

I’m not sure it matters but another data point. Other times when it panics it seems to nave been right after the two Intel Ethernet lines. This boot attempt makes it past that but then fails (it appears) when the PCI LOOP is out of order.

Maybe the loop counter is incremented on entry but the message is output near exit?
Maybe there should be reentrancy counter added - increment it at entry and decrement it at exit - if it's greater than 1 then it means more than one is happening at the same time.

Hi Guys, firstly, thanks for this!

Installed 11.4 (installer) from 11.2.3 to NVME 1TB to test. Install went perfectly, no hitches with soft boot. Was pleasantly surprised because Mac is full up with PCI cards! Chose migration to xfer from sata SSD 11.2.3 (CD Bay) and went to bed. Woke up to prohibit sign (obviously did a reboot during migration?). Hard shutdown, waited, booted into OC picker, selected the recently installed 11.4 on NVMe and booted successfully, with Mac announcing migration successfully completed when booted and entered setup. Haven't restarted again yet but will monitor.

Checker script: "latebloom is loaded"
Used 200/20 & debug=1, -v

Quick question - white apple logo on grey during start w/progress? is that normal? Starts out black, verbose on. Never seen a white apple logo on grey bkgnd before!

Booting 11.4 install with external Apple Wired (plastic) because one on USB extender does not work for OC booting

Hope that helps

@Syncretic - So another interesting item - from a run with 100/20 and a hang I had at least one “loop” out of order in the verbose output. There is PCI LOOP # 63 then 65, 66, 67, and 68 and then 64 which was where it hung. I ended up with the no boot symbol.

I’m not sure it matters but another data point. Other times when it panics it seems to nave been right after the two Intel Ethernet lines. This boot attempt makes it past that but then fails (it appears) when the PCI LOOP is out of order.

That is arguably the most interesting thing I've seen yet (WRT this problem). That's going to get a lot of my attention for the next few days, I think...

...unless it turns out to be common. Has anyone else observed out-of-order PCI LOOP #s? The counter in question is incremented and then immediately printed, so the only way this should be able to happen is if (1) multiple threads are performing PCI bus scans simultaneously (possible because the workloop can launch separate scans for separate buses) and (2) the thread for loop #64 just happened to get interrupted between the increment and the output from printf. That's entirely possible, of course, but it feels odd, and I'm wondering if this might be part of the bigger problem (an untimely interrupt during a secondary bus probe).

Interesting. But are you sure this is not from a run with 150? All the messages indicate a delay of 150 ms.

This has been a minor issue since Big Sur. It occurs when booting in verbose mode and also during installations and updates.

Well then - it was from a run of 150/20. I had moved to 150 after several failures at 100 and I thought this was from one of the 100 runs but the verbose output doesn't lie....I have edited the post.

Thanks @cdf

Tried to upgrade from 11.2.3 to 11.4 and it ended up with a "forbidden" sign and a URL apple, com/support/startup during the second phase.

Using OC 0.69, Latebloom 0.19
latebloom=120 lb_range=40 lb_debug=1 kext-dev-mode=1

Any ideas?

Without verbose information, it's difficult to understand whether or not this was the race condition. Enable verbose (-v in boot-args) and see if you can replicate.

Also unrelated but why the usage of kext-dev-mode? It's been dead for ages (unless I'm missing something):
