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.

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= ).

Thanks for the patch @wast3. It is needed for linux>=5.6

@cl0ne, thank you too much. As I noticed that the package is abandoned, I adopted it and I will upload your modifications after testing it.
