https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/58798/comment/bbc200b7_b8de21c2 PS14, Line 159: Software Connection Manager doesn't work with Linux 5.13 or later I don't get it - what is the reason for that? I'm not that familiar with USB4/TB3 yet, but from what I have read SCM is a) preferred and b) can be present as fallback for compatibility. [1]
I'm not sure what firmware is meant when speaking of Firmware CM - host firmware (coreboot), EC firmware, TB3/USB4 controller firmware?
Maybe someone can elighten me? :-)
