system_profiler SPThunderboltDataType says "No hardware was found". The TRP0 bridge and the second xHCI controller (TXHC, 8086:7ec0) are in the PCI tree, but no Thunderbolt/USB4 driver attaches and no device is ever listed on TXHC.

Not tested further: no USB-C or Thunderbolt devices were available for the feature test. Needs a USB-C drive, hub and a DP alt-mode monitor to see what works on the USB-C ports.

Tested on Lenovo Legion 5 15IAX10, MT7925, macOS 26.7.1 (25G241). Evidence: project-legion evidence/native/featuretest-2026-10-18/A/sto.tb.txt, sto.usb.txt.
