Does TWRP mount vendor, odm partitions?

I'm trying to add TWRP support for a Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro. This is proving very difficult, as I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around the numerous Android abstraction layers. I know I need to load 4 services to get encryption working: > android.hardware.gatekeeper-service-qti.rc\ > android.hardware.secure_element-service.qti.rc\ > android.hardware.security.keymint-service-qti.rc\ > qseecomd.rc Now, this works. I can boot TWRP and see decrypted files. However the touch screen doesn't work. I'm missing a driver. OK, I load 'xiaomi_touch.ko' and also 'nt36532_touch.ko', found in partitions on my device. Well, the touch still doesn't work, I guess there is a service to load? Now my question: What is the relationship between the /odm and /vendor and /vendor_dlkm partitions and TWRP. There already are /system and /vendor provided by TWRP, at some point are the partitions mounted and then the services (etc/init/*.rc) loaded from the mounted partitions, or is this never done, and the TWRP expects all the files to be copied into the ramdisk folders /odm /vendor /system without touching the partitions. When I "adb shell" into the device, these partitions are not mounted, should they be? Complicating matters, some drivers do '**dlopen()**'s so they can't be reorganized around between different partitions. Any tips on this?
