Introduction

This is about documenting getting Linux running on the late 2016 and mid 2017 MPB's; the focus is mostly on the MacBookPro13,3 and MacBookPro14,3 (15inch models), but I try to make it relevant and provide information for MacBookPro13,1, MacBookPro13,2, MacBookPro14,1, and MacBookPro14,2 (13inch models) too. I'm currently using Fedora 27, but most the things should be valid for other recent distros even if the details differ. The kernel version is 4.14.x (after latest update).

The state of linux on the MBP (with particular focus on MacBookPro13,2) is also being tracked on https://github.com/Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux . And for Ubuntu users there are a couple tutorials (here and here) focused on that distro and the MacBook.

Note: For those who have followed these instructions ealier, and in particular for those who have had problems with the custom DSDT, modifying the DSDT is not necessary anymore - se

	export default (interrogate, mockImplementations = {}) => {
	const spies = {}

	interrogate.prototype && Object.getOwnPropertyNames(interrogate.prototype).forEach((name) => {
	if (name !== 'constructor') {
	spies[`${name}Spy`] = createSpy(interrogate.prototype, mockImplementations, name)
	}
	// AFAIK, you can't spy on a constructor
	// top answer is here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/48486214/1090606
	// For now, mock the entire module to assert that the constructor was called correctly.
