New macbook (2016 April 12 inch) keyboard problem, spi and DSDT

Question

I installed the driver by type make test

https://github.com/cb22/macbook12-spi-driver

Tried to modify DSDT

• https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=206671
• https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DSDT#Using_a_CPIO_archive

CMD info

[root@tux ~]# dmesg | grep -i dsdt
[    0.000000] ACPI: DSDT ACPI table found in initrd [kernel/firmware/acpi/dsdt.aml][0x883d]

I still can't use my macbook's keyboard

• Was DSDT override still supported by Arch Linux?
• Were there a full guide to get my keyboard working?
• I did nothing about the kernel patches because I think these 2 patches were merged.
• github issue https://github.com/cb22/macbook12-spi-driver/issues/11

Answer 1

It is because I had noapic kernel parameter which caused intel-lpss error.
