With the @McDonald PKGBUILD below it now works for the latest kernel, 5.17.1, which is really good news. Thank you, as this was driving me crazy.

FYI, it won't install into the 5.15.32-1-lts kernel though. Not mission critical for me, but could trip some people up.

Yeah, this fails to build on the 5.17 release kernel (currently in testing) as well as it stands. I think there's a standard in-kernel driver for my chipset, but this has been far more reliable.

Kithop commented on 2022-02-07 22:40 (UTC)

Hi - this doesn't build/install with the latest 5.17-rc(1/2/3) kernels - looks like petehg has a potential patch for upstream at: https://github.com/mtorromeo/r8168/issues/38#issuecomment-1028040575

It doesn't apply quite cleanly as-is, and when I tried to re-diff it and finally get it patched, booting into the new kernel (with r8169 blacklisted) had my NIC not getting anything off of DHCP properly, so I'm not confident that a) I did the patching right or b) that the patch works with my specific configuration.

Unfortunately, the in-kernel r8169 module has a bug with my config where downstream is capped around ~150Mbps on a Gigabit setup (but upstream is fine).

Nice, i hope it will go into the official repository.

Well done. Used it to work around an already reported bug ( https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/66505?string=r8168&project=5&search_name=&type%5B0%5D=&sev%5B0%5D=&pri%5B0%5D=&due%5B0%5D=&reported%5B0%5D=&cat%5B0%5D=&status%5B0%5D=open&percent%5B0%5D=&opened=&dev=&closed=&duedatefrom=&duedateto=&changedfrom=&changedto=&openedfrom=&openedto=&closedfrom=&closedto= ).
