Public source was audited; hardware qualification remains board-specific. No matching board build target or named-board hardware result was found in the reviewed public Aurora work. The J813 results in M5 MacBook Air do not qualify this product.

Refreshed October 2, 2026 at 9:14 PM EDT. Public PR states, follow-up reports, merge destinations and source were checked. This is an evidence update, not a new physical test. Baseline: linux/aurora-wip@81c520ffb028; bootloader: m1n1/aurora-wip@33ab9b9d00af.

Configurations

Board	Silicon / SoC	Configuration	Year	Audit result
J775C	M5 Max · T6050	Mac Studio	2026	⚪ No matching working-tree DTS or named-board runtime result found
J775D	M5 Ultra · T6050	Mac Studio	2026	⚪ No matching working-tree DTS or named-board runtime result found

Evidence key: 🟢 named hardware report · 🔵 code present in the pinned source · 🟠 partial or unqualified · ⚪ no board-specific evidence found. A merge is an integration event, not a hardware test or release qualification.

Hardware assessment

Area	Current evidence
Boot / CPU / memory / interrupts	⚪ No matching board target or named-board runtime report found.
NVMe / USB / PCIe / CPU scaling	⚪ No board-specific public qualification found.
GPU / display / media / audio / camera	⚪ No board-specific public qualification found.
Wireless / input / SEP / Touch ID	⚪ No board-specific public qualification found.
Thermals / suspend / installer	⚪ No complete-system public qualification found.

Checked the current Apple board target list and public Aurora PRs, including newer M5/M6 work. This is a recorded evidence gap, not a claim that the hardware can never be supported.
