In builder.py::PyProcessBuilder

            if issubclass(port_cls, PyInPort):
                transformer = VirtualPortTransformer(
                    self._csp_port_map[name],
                    p.transform_funcs
                ) if p.transform_funcs else IdentityTransformer()
                port_cls = ty.cast(ty.Type[PyInPort], lt.cls)
                port = port_cls(csp_ports, pm, p.shape, lt.d_type, transformer)

Here, if the layer is simple, then we create an IdentityTransformer for the dangling unconnected port. If the layer is part of a hierarchical sub model, then the transform_funcs is not None and hence the code fails in self._csp_port_map[name] as there was no CSP port associated with this dangling unconnected PyInPort.

Proposal - Should check if transform_funcs exist, if so and if name does not exist in csp_port_map, log a warning that it is possibly a dangling port and return the same IdentityTransformer(). Make this in CProcessBuilder as well.

This will be fixed by intel-innersource/frameworks.ai.lava.lava#117

I'm guessing this is fixed and can be closed now that the PR is merged?
