What changed

  • completes the single-Kext PC711 MSI-X compatibility path for macOS 11–15
  • adds the Big Sur MSI-to-MSI-X reallocation path and runs early PCI MSI-X setup on every supported release
  • retains the macOS 14–15 interrupt-source fallback
  • updates English and Chinese installation/development documentation
  • replaces the old Recovery screenshot with the installed macOS 15 performance and system-information result
  • adds v1.7.0 release notes and archive checksum

Root cause

Older Apple NVMe paths could leave SK hynix PC711 1C5C:174A on an incompatible interrupt path. Recovery and second-stage Installer environments can issue Identify or other polled commands before the later interrupt-source hook, producing a timeout and kernel panic after roughly 75 seconds. Version 1.7 requests or reallocates MSI-X during early PCI matching before IONVMeFamily attaches.

Hardware validation

  • macOS 11.6, 12.5.1, 13.4.1, and 14.6.1 Recovery booted successfully
  • macOS 15.6.1 completed installation, passed the second-stage macOS Installer boot, and entered the installed system from the PC711
  • installed system reports PCIe x4 at 8.0 GT/s, TRIM Yes, and S.M.A.R.T. Verified
  • Blackmagic Disk Speed Test measured 2766.1 MB/s write and 3005.9 MB/s read
  • release Kext binary SHA-256 exactly matches the hardware-tested v1.7 binary: aa76e48721f7bd190241e15d66462f79270371930d0f1c0980a3e9041dde1dc2

Checks

  • ./Scripts/verify.sh
  • git diff --check
  • plutil bundle validation
  • x86_64 Mach-O and weak-symbol checks
  • release ZIP integrity test
