Update v5.8 patches
Changes:
 - SAM:
   - Update DTX driver state after resume.
   - Add DTX Documentation, misc. fixes, and cleanup.

 - IPTS:
   This implements a new and refined UAPI interface that should improve
   stability during suspend and move some responsibility into userspace,
   making the driver simpler.

   It also fixes some sleep issues due to improper shutdown of the device.

   Shortlog:
     0a4a44c Add missing include
     31ae03d Improve error handling of ipts_control_* functions
     287dea0 Prevent lockups if stop is called from the receiver thread
     b737a9c On remove, wait until CLEAR_MEM_WINDOW returned.
     c5b66a5 Add GET_DEVICE_READY ioctl
     af0f84a Seperate UAPI initialization and device probing
     4ae7674 Patch the MEI bus to allow sending commands on remove
     27772bc Just a few refactorings...

Arch Linux PKGBUILDs for Surface Linux

Primarily tested on Arch Linux + Surface Laptop 13" (Intel).

Instructions

  • Building the patched kernel (includes ACPI module)

    cd kernel
    PKGEXT=".pkg.tar" MAKEFLAGS="-j8" makepkg -s --skippgpcheck
    sudo pacman -U linux-surface-*.pkg.tar
    

    It's based on the Arch kernel tree (with patches curated by Arch developers) and Surface specific patches.

  • Building firmware: Please refer to https://github.com/linux-surface/surface-ipts-firmware
