The Asahi Linux developers involved with working on Linux support for Apple Silicon M-Series devices have put out a new progress report on their development efforts.

Asahi Linux developers have kept working on new kernel patches and some being upstreamed for Linux 6.17 and 6.18 cycles, as previously covered on Phoronix. Notably with Linux 6.18 is the Device Trees for the Apple M2 Pro / Max / Ultra devices albeit more driver code is still working its way upstream.

How about you implement it?

No, absolutely not. Apple is anti Linux. Giving them money over manufacturers with actual Linux support is the completely wrong. AMD is the way to go.

I bought the M1 specifically since it's aarch64. You do your x86_64, I needed native arm for my IoT hacking job ;)

AMD profits from Israeli colonialism, so giving them money is crossing a picket line.
