Hello everyone,
I am running Arch Linux on a 2015 15' MBP, which was release in mid 2015. Seeing as it is new and relative unorthodox hardware to run Arch Linux on, there are a few problems. Most of the problems are well documented on the Arch Linux wiki page (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ma … F11.2C4.2B). However one problem I am having I have yet to see documented anywhere for this model.
The shutdown, sleep, and hibernate commands all execute the appropriate actions in the software, but they fail to actually effect the power state of the hardware. This means that to shutdown the system I have to run `systemctl poweroff` and then wait for all the user space actions to finish the hold down the physical power button. For sleep/hibernate the situation is worse, since if the computer attempts to sleep it will execute the user space actions, but not effect the hardware. This means effectively I can't awake the system if the sleep or hibernate command executes.
Interestingly enough the reboot command does work correctly, so if I really want to do a clean shutdown I can reboot into OS X and then shutdown the system.
Before I make an upstream bug report about the issue, I wanted to see if there was any further triage that I could perform on the system myself, since it seems unlikely that it would an undocumented issue at this point. Does anyone have any ideas which might fix the issue? It sounds like a kernel bug for the new hardware, but are there other possibilities.
Thanks,
Iso

Sounds like an Intel-issue; have you tried the tips/configuration from other models?
Don't know a lot of Apple's with Linux, but does booting with acpi=strict maybe help?

Sadly this does not help the issue. Thanks for the suggestion.
