No clue really. The only reference to MST in the eDP spec is the explanation of the acronym. I did spot that there's this thing called multi-SST mode, where you feed the panel with several SST links. But that's sort of the opposite of MST. > > Like the code could be buggy now, but breaking it completely is different. Should be easy for someone familiar with the MST code to fix if eDP+MST ever makes an appearance; Just revert this patch, and deal with any fallout. > > I've no insight into future eDP panel development. > > Dave. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
