Which is unexpected. This means a display that has DP_MSTM_CAP == 0 that actually does not support sideband messaging, which is expected, will get a black screen with this patch. This was the conclusion when I discussed this with Ville and Imre. Related to this, I've posted a series to enable MST mode for 128b/132b displays that support single-stream with sideband messaging [1]. It obviously does not directly help here, as that requires DP_MSTM_CAP == 2. It might be possible to quirk the one display to use that. Maybe. The alternative is actually implementing 128b/132b single-stream w/o sideband messaging using our regular SST paths. BR, Jani.
