Could you please explain more about what's "a dual role hub"?

What signals of Hub chip connect to PTN5110 chip?

My understanding PTN5110(TCPCI controller with PD PHY) is independent
with USB data path, for USB data path, I think it should be:
SoC -> Hub -> USB-C
PTN5110 should not care or know if there is a Hub between type-C connector
and USB controller.
If the type-C connector connects to a Hub, then it's a DFP only on data,
and from power point view, you also only power source role, right?
