Given how Qualcomm is responsible for ARM MS Surfaces being "not really compliant" with even what Microsoft mandated...
... I won't hold my breath for Qualcomm to be bringer of SystemReady. I might end up too blue.
- transpute 2y ago> ARM MS Surfaces being "not really compliant" with even what Microsoft mandated... 2024 Microsoft Surface?
- wmf 2y agoYeah, there's some bullshit about device trees vs. ACPI.
- transpute 2y agoMaybe Next Year!
- p_l 2y agoHaven't checked 2024 one, but previous ones were borked by Qualcomm essentially missing bits of ACPI runtime handling, EFI variable storage not actually existing at runtime, and Qualcomm papering over it in Windows with drivers that hijacked the proper interfaces. So Linux-on-ARM-Surface had a lot of magical thinking involving using device tree etc. caused by people hitting the wall with broken UEFI implementation.
