<div>source and sink only make sense in the specific randr
commands to set this up. Essentially a source is a producer
and sink is a consumer. In a nutshell, devices can either:
drive displays, render content, or both. For example, a USB
to VGA adapter can just display, but it has no graphics engine
to actually draw any content. You can also have devices which
have no display hardware (like the chip in this thread) or no
displays physically wired to the chip which can only render.
Finally you have the traditional case where you have a device
which has display hardware with display connectors wired up
which also has a graphics engine. Regardless of what hardware
capabilities the device has, the display manager can pick
which one(s) will be used for display and which one will be
used for rendering. If the rendering and display device is
the same, everything happens on the device directly. If the
rendering and display devices are separate, the rendering
device will render to it's own memory and the the contents
will be copied to a buffer suitable for use by the display
device.</div>

Not possible on this system. The dGPU in
question has no display<br>
hardware at all so it cannot drive a display.
It can only support<br>
render offload.<br>
