Can't install under manjaro. Builds ok but during installation I get this error message:

==> Unable to install module rts5227/1.07 for kernel 4.19.31-rt18-MANJARO: Missing kernel modules tree.

I can't find anything online about a "kernel modules tree" (Sorry, I'm very ignorant of how the kernel works).

The driver compiled after uncommenting

// #define SG_END 0x02

At line 319 of rtsx_chip.h

There seems to be a conflict with SG_END variable... Might have a fix here: https://gitlab.ic.unicamp.br/lkcamp/linux-staging/commit/b5d013bc09e9e76df9cdc85c2598486ba9a5b9b6

Won't build on Manjaro... Here's the make.log file:

# Blacklist rtsx_pci

The driver works fine for me on 4.20.12. There is just one small issue as it seems like the device is not detected (not showing in lspci) after after a warm reboot (shutdown -r). However if I shutdown -h and then restart it works.

You may need to append

install rtsx_pci /bin/false

in your blacklist.conf.

By the way, the patch is redundant in RTS5229, I use https://github.com/kmahyyg/rts5229-dkms , It works fine on 4.20.3

Also blacklisting rtsx_pci seems to stop at least 2 other modules from loading (rtsx_pci, rtsx_pci_ms, rtsx_pci_sdmmc), these are all replaced by rts5227?

Have you got it to work?

I seems I have 2 issues:

1. Before I installed this driver I got dmesg errors every time I inserted a card. Now nothing seems to happen at all even though the correct module (rts5227) is loaded.

2. The module only loads automatically on the first reboot after installation, after that I have to load it manually like mentioned bellow. This still doesn't get the card reader to work. Moreover, even after manually loading rts5227 the card reader doesn't appear in lspci (it did the first time rts5227 was used).

Quick followup: manually modprobing rtsx_pci solves the issue.

I'll have to find why the modules are no longer inserted at boot.
