Default Re: Linux/ARM64 and DisplayLink worth trying?

All,
same question as previous poster. My (different) use case would be to connect a DisplayLink-powered USB / Graphics adapter or an DisplayLink-powered display to an embedded board (ARM Ultrascale with ARM A53, i.e. 64-bit) that does not bring its own display port to begin with. OS baseline would be Linux 4.* (ARM 64-bit of course).
I would be considering both the old DL-1* chipsets (there are still some devices on the market, which if I understand correctly would use the udl kernel module) as well as the newer DL-{3,4,5}* chipsets (if I understand correctly, evdi kernel module). Looking at https://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=64882 (about an attempt to connect about a Rasbperry Pi, from 2016, and the thread looks a bit inconclusive to me) I want to understand my current chances of getting either way running.
Any advice would be welcome.
Thanks, Holger
