@MaLd0n,

I am very long time not using such ACPI patches because I prefer to do this 

1. Manual

2. Automatic by DSDT->Fixes

3. RenameDevices

Anyway Patches also exist. We have no FindMask and ReplaceMask because we can use different length of Find and Replace.
you should choose a pattern that unique for this patch idea and you may insert less bytes in Replace than you delete.

More advanced hackers can make their own DSDT patches using binary-level

replacement:

TgtBridge specifies that the patch will only work within one block defined by this

name

Device (RP02) { .. }

However, this method is no

And no, there is no strict matching between Clover's method and Opencore's. We have more abilities.
