Hi all,

I am also currently working on MST emulation for VKMS. If someone can read 
what I already did and at tell me if my implementation seems on the right 
track it could be nice.

The current status is not very advanced: I can emulate a mst HUB, but not 
a screen. I am currently working on properly emulating the HUB by using an 
other hub.

You can find the branch for this work here:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/louischauvet/kernel/-/tree/b4/vkms-mst

Thanks a lot,
Louis Chauvet
