So, if anyone knows of any ASL/machines that use the serial bus stuff, please forward the code to me. This includes: GenericSerialBus SMBus IPMI And maybe: GeneralPurposeIo For completeness. > On Fri, Jun 30, 2017 at 6:37 PM Andy Shevchenko > <andy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > On Fri, Jun 30, 2017 at 6:57 PM, Benjamin Tissoires > > <benjamin.tissoires@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > On Jun 29 2017 or thereabouts, Andy Shevchenko wrote: > > >> On Thu, Jun 29, 2017 at 3:10 PM, Benjamin Tissoires > > >> <benjamin.tissoires@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > >> What devices (laptops, tablets) have it? > > >> Surface 3.
