I can't speak for current Solaris, but Xorg on illumos definitely needs hal.

Yes, Xorg on Solaris still uses HAL for input device discovery and hotplug
notification, since we haven't ported the replacement udev interfaces to it,
so I keep maintaining the HAL code in Xorg upstream and block attempts to remove
it like https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/1537 .

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/alanc/hal/-/tree/solaris?ref_type=heads
should be mostly up-to-date for our fork of HAL - the absolute latest code would
be in our third-party open source code releases on:
