Hello everyone,
This series will enable hybrid graphics on MacBookPro15,1.
The MacBookPro15,1 normally starts Linux with the discrete GPU as primary.
On the machines tested here that results in roughly 24 W idle power draw,
about 12 W of which is attributable to the otherwise unused discrete GPU.
Selecting the integrated GPU at boot avoids that cost, but the discrete GPU
cannot currently return after GMUX powers it down, so usable hybrid graphics
and suspend are not available.
This series provides the missing power lifecycle across apple-gmux, amdgpu
and the HDA controller. With the integrated GPU as primary, the discrete GPU
then transitions between DynOff and DynPwr and offloading to the dGPU
through DRI_PRIME is working as well as external monitor support.
The result has been tested for three weeks on both the 2018 and 2019
MacBookPro15,1 revisions. Runtime suspend and resume, system suspend and
resume, repeated GPU wakeups and also a variety of external Thunderbolt
and USB-C monitors were tested successfully.
It is a huge step forward in terms of usability, convenience and battery life
for everyone who tested.
So I have this one question regarding Apple's gpu-power-prefs EFI variable.
The firmware defaults to the discrete GPU, while selecting the integrated GPU
is required before this hybrid configuration can take effect. Would setting
that preference from the kernel be appropriate on a known-good model, or
should it remain a userspace policy decision? Some discoverable way to select
the power-efficient configuration would seem preferable to requiring users to
know about a vendor-specific NVRAM variable before Linux behaves like a hybrid
graphics laptop.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hello everyone,
We managed to make hybrid graphics work on the MacBook Pro 15,1 with
iGPU as primary and dGPU with DynOff/DynPwr for offloading using
DRI_PRIME. This needed a few changes in apple-gmux, amdgpu and ALSA.
The discrete GPU on the MacBookPro15,1 did not return with the original
GMUX power-on sequence. The PCI configuration space remained inaccessible
and runtime PM could not provide usable hybrid graphics with the iGPU
as primary.
The firmware PWG1 and PWG3 link methods are evaluated around the GMUX
transition, and power-on completes after PCI configuration space becomes
accessible. The sequence is limited to the MacBookPro15,1 while every
other model is unaffected. Unfortunately, we were not able to make
MacBookPro16,1 and 16,4 dGPUs return from D3cold yet. But we believe
this series will also serve as a good base for upcoming fixes.
This patch was tested on both the 2018 and 2019 MacBookPro15,1 revisions
with the integrated GPU as primary. The discrete GPU transitions between
DynOff and DynPwr, and also external display work across the transitions.
When an external display is connected, the dGPU will turn on automatically
and also turn off again when disconnecting.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hello everyone,
The MacBookPro15,1 uses Apple GMUX to control power to the discrete GPU,
but it does not expose the ATPX or ACPI power-resource interfaces currently
recognized by amdgpu. The driver therefore leaves runtime PM disabled even
though vga_switcheroo can switch the GPU reliably.
A dedicated GMUX runtime PM mode uses the existing vga_switcheroo PM domain
to sequence GPU power. A runtime-suspended GMUX GPU can remain powered off
across system sleep, following the smart-suspend handling already used by
BOCO devices.
This allows the discrete GPU to enter D3cold while the integrated GPU is
primary and allows PRIME workloads and external displays to wake it on
demand. The model enablement is limited to the tested MacBookPro15,1.
This was tested on both the 2018 and 2019 MacBookPro15,1 revisions together
with the apple-gmux and HDA changes in this series.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hello everyone,
The HDA controller normally needs different WAKEEN settings for runtime and
system suspend, so azx_prepare() prevents direct complete. For a switcheroo
audio client whose bound GPU is already runtime suspended and switched off,
however, the controller is physically inaccessible and cannot signal wake
events.
Resuming the HDA function during system suspend also acquires its runtime
PM supplier. This powers the discrete GPU back on only to suspend it again
and can expose failures while restoring an otherwise unused GPU.
Direct complete is now allowed when the bound VGA device is both runtime
suspended and reported off by vga_switcheroo. Active GPUs and HDA
controllers without a switcheroo binding retain the existing WAKEEN
transition.
This was tested as part of the MacBookPro15,1 hybrid graphics series on
both the 2018 and 2019 revisions. The discrete GPU remains powered off
across system suspend when it is unused, and suspend and resume complete
successfully.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

... to wrap the call site, instead. Since this is the only caller,
having the conditional here would make the intention clearer.
Also, a comment about what "return 1" plays here would be helpful for
readers. It's a small piece but has a significant meaning.

Looking at the code again, this won't work well.
But, keeping vga_switcheroo-specific code in a single place would be
still meaningful. So,
#ifdef SUPPORT_VGA_SWITCHEROO
#define use_vga_switcheroo(chip) ((chip)->use_vga_switcheroo)
#define needs_eld_notify_link(chip) ((chip)->bus.keep_power)
+static bool azx_vga_is_powered_off(struct azx *chip);
#else
#define use_vga_switcheroo(chip) 0
#define needs_eld_notify_link(chip) false
+#define azx_vga_is_powered_off(chip) false
#endif
and then define azx_vga_is_powered_off() in the section for
vga_switcheroo code.
In anyway, it's a matter of taste, and if the resultant patch doesn't
look better, you can keep the original way, too.
thanks,
Takashi

The HDA controller normally needs different WAKEEN settings for runtime and
system suspend, so azx_prepare() prevents direct complete. For a switcheroo
audio client whose bound GPU is already runtime suspended and switched off,
however, the controller is physically inaccessible and cannot signal wake
events.
Resuming the HDA function during system suspend also acquires its runtime
PM supplier. This powers the discrete GPU back on only to suspend it again
and can expose failures while restoring an otherwise unused GPU.
Direct complete is now allowed when the bound VGA device is both runtime
suspended and reported off by vga_switcheroo. Active GPUs and HDA
controllers without a switcheroo binding retain the existing WAKEEN
transition.
This was tested as part of the MacBookPro15,1 hybrid graphics series on
both the 2018 and 2019 revisions. The discrete GPU remains powered off
across system suspend when it is unused, and suspend and resume complete
successfully.

That sounds reasonable to me, but I'm definitely not an expert for that kind of stuff.
Adding Harry and Leo from our display team on CC as well since that HDA audio stuff falls into their responsibilities as well, please make sure to CC them on future revisions of this patch set.
I'm not sure that even applies to AMD GPUs but if I strongly suggest to run this patch through our display CI, just to make sure that there is no regression on suspend/resume.
Thanks,
Christian.

But I guess you'd need to refresh the patch descriptions in other two

Hello everyone,
This series enables hybrid graphics on the MacBookPro15,1.
The MacBookPro15,1 normally starts Linux with the discrete GPU as primary.
On the machines tested here that results in roughly 24 W idle power draw,
about 12 W of which is attributable to the otherwise unused discrete GPU.
Selecting the integrated GPU at boot avoids that cost, but the discrete GPU
cannot currently return after GMUX powers it down, so usable hybrid graphics
and suspend are not available.
This series provides the missing power lifecycle across apple-gmux, amdgpu
and the HDA controller. With the integrated GPU as primary, the discrete GPU
transitions between DynOff and DynPwr. Offloading through DRI_PRIME and
external monitor support both work across these transitions.
The result has been tested for three weeks on both the 2018 and 2019
MacBookPro15,1 revisions. Runtime suspend and resume, system suspend and
resume, repeated GPU wakeups, and a variety of external Thunderbolt and
USB-C monitors were tested successfully.
One question remains regarding Apple's gpu-power-prefs EFI variable. The
firmware defaults to the discrete GPU, while selecting the integrated GPU
is required before this hybrid configuration can take effect. Would setting
that preference from the kernel be appropriate on a known-good model, or
should it remain a userspace policy decision? Some discoverable way to
select the power-efficient configuration would seem preferable to requiring
users to know about a vendor-specific NVRAM variable.
Changes in v2:
- Refresh the individual patch descriptions.
- Evaluate PWG methods without expecting an integer return object.
- Refresh the cached discrete PCI device when a client is re-registered.
- Keep the HDA switcheroo implementation in the existing switcheroo section.
- Document the positive azx_prepare() return and add Takashi's Reviewed-by.
The HDA follow-up review crossed with the standalone v2 and v3 revisions of
patch 3/3. This full-series v2 contains the reviewed v3 implementation.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260812122206.193680-1-dev@deq.rocks/
Thank you for your time and consideration.

From: Atharva Tiwari <atharvatiwarilinuxdev@gmail.com>
The discrete GPU on the MacBookPro15,1 does not return after the legacy
GMUX power-on sequence. PCI configuration space remains inaccessible, so
runtime PM cannot provide usable hybrid graphics with the integrated GPU
as primary.
Evaluate the firmware PWG1 and PWG3 link methods around the GMUX
transition and wait for PCI configuration space before completing power-on.
Keep the sequence limited to the MacBookPro15,1 and retain the existing
path for every other model.
This was tested on both the 2018 and 2019 MacBookPro15,1 revisions with the
integrated GPU as primary. The discrete GPU transitions between DynOff and
DynPwr, and external displays work across the transitions.

The MacBookPro15,1 uses Apple GMUX to control power to the discrete GPU,
but it does not expose the ATPX or ACPI power-resource interfaces currently
recognized by amdgpu. The driver therefore leaves runtime PM disabled even
though vga_switcheroo can switch the GPU reliably.
A dedicated GMUX runtime PM mode uses the existing vga_switcheroo PM domain
to sequence GPU power. A runtime-suspended GMUX GPU can remain powered off
across system sleep, following the smart-suspend handling already used by
BOCO devices.
This allows the discrete GPU to enter D3cold while the integrated GPU is
primary and allows PRIME workloads and external displays to wake it on
demand. The model enablement is limited to the tested MacBookPro15,1.
This was tested on both the 2018 and 2019 MacBookPro15,1 revisions together
with the apple-gmux and HDA changes in this series.

The HDA controller normally needs different WAKEEN settings for runtime and
system suspend, so azx_prepare() prevents direct complete. For a switcheroo
audio client whose bound GPU is already runtime suspended and switched off,
however, the controller is physically inaccessible and cannot signal wake
events.
Resuming the HDA function during system suspend also acquires its runtime
PM supplier. This powers the discrete GPU back on only to suspend it again
and can expose failures while restoring an otherwise unused GPU.
Direct complete is allowed when the bound VGA device is both runtime
suspended and reported off by vga_switcheroo. Active GPUs and HDA
controllers without a switcheroo binding retain the existing WAKEEN
transition.
This was tested as part of the MacBookPro15,1 hybrid graphics series on
both the 2018 and 2019 revisions. The discrete GPU remains powered off
across system suspend when it is unused, and suspend and resume complete
successfully.

Hello everyone,
This series enables hybrid graphics on the MacBookPro15,1.
The MacBookPro15,1 normally starts Linux with the discrete GPU as primary.
On the machines tested here that results in roughly 24 W idle power draw,
about 12 W of which is attributable to the otherwise unused discrete GPU.
Selecting the integrated GPU at boot avoids that cost, but the discrete GPU
cannot currently return after GMUX powers it down, so usable hybrid graphics
and suspend are not available.
This series provides the missing power lifecycle across apple-gmux, amdgpu
and the HDA controller. With the integrated GPU as primary, the discrete GPU
transitions between DynOff and DynPwr. Offloading through DRI_PRIME and
external monitor support both work across these transitions.
The result has been tested for three weeks on both the 2018 and 2019
MacBookPro15,1 revisions. Runtime suspend and resume, system suspend and
resume, repeated GPU wakeups, and a variety of external Thunderbolt and
USB-C monitors were tested successfully.
One question remains regarding Apple's gpu-power-prefs EFI variable. The
firmware defaults to the discrete GPU, while selecting the integrated GPU
is required before this hybrid configuration can take effect. Would setting
that preference from the kernel be appropriate on a known-good model, or
should it remain a userspace policy decision? Some discoverable way to
select the power-efficient configuration would seem preferable to requiring
users to know about a vendor-specific NVRAM variable.
Changes in v3:
- Restore integer result validation for PWG1 and PWG3. The MacBookPro15,1
AML returns Zero on success and One on failure from both methods. The v2
conversion to acpi_evaluate_object() incorrectly discarded that status.
Changes in v2:
- Refresh the individual patch descriptions.
- Refresh the cached discrete PCI device when a client is re-registered.
- Keep the HDA switcheroo implementation in the existing switcheroo section.
- Document the positive azx_prepare() return and add Takashi's Reviewed-by.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260812144221.35877-1-dev@deq.rocks/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260812122206.193680-1-dev@deq.rocks/
Thank you for your time and consideration.

From: Atharva Tiwari <atharvatiwarilinuxdev@gmail.com>
The discrete GPU on the MacBookPro15,1 does not return after the legacy
GMUX power-on sequence. PCI configuration space remains inaccessible, so
runtime PM cannot provide usable hybrid graphics with the integrated GPU
as primary.
Evaluate the firmware PWG1 and PWG3 link methods around the GMUX
transition and wait for PCI configuration space before completing power-on.
Keep the sequence limited to the MacBookPro15,1 and retain the existing
path for every other model.
This was tested on both the 2018 and 2019 MacBookPro15,1 revisions with the
integrated GPU as primary. The discrete GPU transitions between DynOff and
DynPwr, and external displays work across the transitions.

The MacBookPro15,1 uses Apple GMUX to control power to the discrete GPU,
but it does not expose the ATPX or ACPI power-resource interfaces currently
recognized by amdgpu. The driver therefore leaves runtime PM disabled even
though vga_switcheroo can switch the GPU reliably.
A dedicated GMUX runtime PM mode uses the existing vga_switcheroo PM domain
to sequence GPU power. A runtime-suspended GMUX GPU can remain powered off
across system sleep, following the smart-suspend handling already used by
BOCO devices.
This allows the discrete GPU to enter D3cold while the integrated GPU is
primary and allows PRIME workloads and external displays to wake it on
demand. The model enablement is limited to the tested MacBookPro15,1.
This was tested on both the 2018 and 2019 MacBookPro15,1 revisions together
with the apple-gmux and HDA changes in this series.

The HDA controller normally needs different WAKEEN settings for runtime and
system suspend, so azx_prepare() prevents direct complete. For a switcheroo
audio client whose bound GPU is already runtime suspended and switched off,
however, the controller is physically inaccessible and cannot signal wake
events.
Resuming the HDA function during system suspend also acquires its runtime
PM supplier. This powers the discrete GPU back on only to suspend it again
and can expose failures while restoring an otherwise unused GPU.
Direct complete is allowed when the bound VGA device is both runtime
suspended and reported off by vga_switcheroo. Active GPUs and HDA
controllers without a switcheroo binding retain the existing WAKEEN
transition.
This was tested as part of the MacBookPro15,1 hybrid graphics series on
both the 2018 and 2019 revisions. The discrete GPU remains powered off
across system suspend when it is unused, and suspend and resume complete
successfully.
