Upstream Progress Notes (m1n1, as of July 2026)

Recent upstream m1n1 commits that advance M4-family support:

  • d3699d5 — t6041 initial support (M4 Pro/Max variant)
  • 0f221fc — PCIe: add t8132/t6040 support (T8132 = M4, T6040 = M4 Pro)
  • b72e664 — Initial support for T8142
  • fcaf476 — PMGR: support M4 Pro/Max / A18 Pro / M5
  • 432aa33 — chickens: initial M4 Donan (T8132) support
  • 0eeca15 — EARLY_UART_BASE for T8132
  • 0a9302e — SMP CPU_START_OFF for T8132
  • 0e88df7 / ffe667d — watchdog handling for t814x (M4 family)

Checklist Items This Addresses

Reference: https://github.com/lily-oc/m4-asahi-installer-checklist

  • Section 1: Mac mini M4 (base) model identifier Mac16,10, board config J773gAP, SoC codename T8132 confirmed
  • Section 1: Base M4 vs M4 Pro distinction confirmed (no 10GbE on this unit)
  • Section 4: Base gigabit Ethernet path identified — Broadcom BCM57762 on PCIe
  • Section 2: T8132 SoC IDs and chip ID documented

Additional Testing Available

I have physical access to this M4 Mac mini base and can run further diagnostics, capture ioreg dumps, test USB Ethernet fallback, or run the Asahi installer in detection-only mode as needed.
