@Korialo No issues with r8129 for me either. This module might still be useful with LTS kernels, but I'm not completely sure.

@Melody666 Support for rtl8125 is already included in the r8169 driver, a simple modinfo into r8169 module will show the following:

I generally use this driver for testing and to compare it to the builtin kernel module, I have no issues with the r8169 driver.

@Melody666 You can use patch from devome https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/r8125-dkms#comment-977750 I can build successfully after applying it.

Melody666 commented on 2024-10-20 10:13 (UTC)

Just to save people time, this driver does not work out of the box with the latest kernel and does not install. This is probably meant for LTS kernels.

@barand3

Copy everything in the code block and save it as a text file with the extension .patch. Then run

patch /path/to/file/r8125_n.c yourfile.patch

where /path/to/file is most likely going to be /usr/src/r8125-<version>.

Then regenerate your kernel and you should be good to go.

@devome, a stupid question, how do I apply this patch? he asks me for a file to patch

actionless commented on 2024-07-07 17:01 (UTC)

i forgot to mention the problem because of which i actually started looking into it :)

i have such systemd link config:

$ cat /etc/systemd/network/50-wired.link
[Match]
OriginalName=eno1

[Link]
NamePolicy=kernel database onboard slot path
AutoNegotiation=no
Duplex=full
BitsPerSecond=1G

and with both stock r8169 and this custom-built module i see this in boot logs:

(udev-worker)[434]: eno1: Could not disable auto negotiation, ignoring: Invalid argument
(udev-worker)[434]: eno1: Could not set speed to 1000Mbps, ignoring: Invalid argument
(udev-worker)[434]: eno1: Could not set duplex to full, ignoring: Invalid argument

also it seems that the readme is from extremely old version of the module (or even the module for another controller),

because documented kernel parameters are not recognized,

and advertise numbers not match between readme and actual code of the module

upstream url is dead, the new url should be:
