I have a xps 15 9550 running dual boot system (win 10 and linux) and a docking station brought from Amazon (http://a.co/1oTsVhj). I have noticed that the docking station works perfectly on win 10, but when I use Linux, the only port would work is the display port, and none of other ports would work. My Linux is running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and the Kernel is 4.15.3. I don't what is going on and how to make it work.
Thanks,

I also have a dual boot system of Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 and I had the same problem. My laptop is a HP ZBook 17 G4 with a HP Zbook Thunderbolt 3 Dock. I found the following solution:
- Go to your BIOS setup
- Go to the Advanced tab then Boot settings, disable the FastBoot (this allows for the use of the thunderbolt technology pre-boot)
- Go to the Advanced tab then Port settings:
- Disable the "Require BIOS PW (password) for TBT
(thunderbolt)" or something similar (This shows/allows the option
for no security on thunderbolt tech, see next step) - Change the Thunderbolt security configuration (a dropdown for me) to "PCIe & USB" or the option with no security.
- Save and reboot, my Ubuntu
OS immediately started using the 2 displays and the USB Mouse and
keyboard that were connected to the HP Thunderbolt 3 Dock
Hope this helps more people, as for now there are still no Linux drivers to use this Thunderbolt technology securely
