The last time that I blogged about EFIver.py was a week ago, for version 1.5, and today I like to share EFIver.py v2.2 with you. Let’s start with the output. As usual.

The highlighted board-id (Mac-7BA5B2D9E42DDD94) is the apparent new iMac Pro. One with a 8-core/16 threads and Intel W-2140B processor. And for people wondering about its performance. Well. Take a look at this OpenCL score. This SKU runs at a lower (500 MHz) base frequency than the W-2145. Which runs at a base frequency of 3.7GHz. The 10 core/20 thread SKU is the W-2150B with a base frequency of 3GHz. With a 300MHz lower base frequency than the W-2155.
There are also two (1, 2) CPU Geekbench results with an early SKU (showing Intel 0000%) with a matching CPUID of the one that I found, back in August, in the leaked firmware of the iMac Pro. These are running 1300MHz slower than the W-2145 but note that this may be in fact be the 18 core SKU. Thing is. Apple is using a core/thread limiter. In short. You should take the results with a grain of salt.
Another new one, at the bottom of the list, is the Mac-F221DCC8/MacPro5,1 which comes with the High Sierra installer app.
There are also a total of five board-id’s with an Apple model set to “Unknown”. I did this because we don’t officially know any of their real model names. You may count only four of them, but there’s also this one:
Mac-CF21D135A7D34AA6 | Unknown |AAPLX589.88Z.0161.B00.1705100046
Which I left out intentionally. I have some ideas about the following board-id’s:
Mac-1BDAB09B689867E2 -> MacBookPro13,n
Mac-F305150B0C7DEEEF -> MacBook8,n
Mac-D1FF70AF6D8C849A -> MacBookPro11,n
But that’s educated guesswork only. Nothing official. Anyway. Here’s the change log. Per revision. From v1.5 up to v2.2
Changelog for v1.5:
– check for installSeed.py and download it when missing.
– code refactored (no more code duplication).
– the output of the scrit is now a lot quicker.
– now reads the supported board-id’s from the firmware payload files.
– changed version number to v1.5
Changelog for v1.6:
– support for older version of efiupdater added.
Changelog for v1.7:
– now using the right patch for support of older versions of efiupdater.
Changelog for v1.8:
– whitespace changes.
– now checking both UUID’s (for old and new hardware models).
Changelog for v1.9:
– read EFI version from IODeviceTree:/rom.
Changelog for v2.0:
– check for Mac-F221DCC8/MacPro5,1 Apple UUID added.
– made some preparation for the next major release.
– shebang line changed.
Changelog for v2.1:
– now also checks the firmware directory of the installer.
– use filename instead of myBoardID (for MacPro5,1).
– removed spaces in one of the Apple UUID’s (done to verify the UUID).
Changelog for v2.2:
– removed a spurious semicolon.
– convert board-id to string and remove the trailing null byte.
