Mainly relevant for Lenovo and a few other OEMs, when this happens that means that your Embedded Controller is ready to use in macOS! Do make sure that this Device (EC) is actually your main EC and not a secondary one.

And please verify that the DSDT hasn't already been patched by Clover or OpenCore, please dump it without booting either of them to be sure or triple check that there aren't any EC renames in your config already

Applying your EC patch

As you can see from the table below, we'll be renaming our EC listed in the DSDT. Do note you cannot just throw random renames without checking which is the main EC first, as this can cause actual damage to your laptop.

Fixing Power Management

Intel CPUs only

CPU naming is fairly easy to figure out as well, open your decompiled DSDT and search for Processor. This should give you a result like this:

As we can see, the first processor in our list is PR00. This is what we'll be applying the plugin-type=1 property too. Now grab SSDT-PLUG and replace the default CPU0 with our PR00. There's a couple things to note:

Note: X299 may report CP10 or higher for the CPU, when this happens use CP00 instead. This issue is due to weird numeration on Windows' side
