Should we do something about that?
Creating or removing a payload, which need to update the payload table in the branch device can fail expectedly if the corresponding MST connector is disconnected by the time of the atomic commit. This is indicated by the above VCPI 0 for port ffff888126ce9000 not in topology, not creating a payload to remote Part 1 of payload creation for DP-5 failed, skipping part 2 Payload for VCPI 0 not in topology, not sending remove debug messages. The commit must still continue and complete since the user should be able to disable each MST connector in a topology one MST connector at a time. > BR, > Jani. > > > > > > > >> Regards > >> Suraj Kandpal > >> > >> > BR, > >> > Jani. > >> > > >> > > >> > > > >> > >> } > >> > >> > >> > >> return 0; > >> > >> -- > >> > >> 2.34.1 > >> > >> > >> > > >> > -- > >> > Jani Nikula, Intel > > -- > Jani Nikula, Intel
