 Ramses 🇵🇸 | Is there no support in linux for realtek 8157 chips? I don't see the ID listed in https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/86731a2a651e58953fc949573895f2fa6d456841/drivers/net/usb/r8152.c#L10024 | 11:05:15 |
| Ramses 🇵🇸 | Up to 8156 seems to be supported by that driver | 11:05:41 |
 K900 | https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241126022515.4043-6-hau@realtek.com/ | 11:08:19 |
| K900 | Looks like there's a patch series | 11:08:24 |
 matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Are there any products using those new realtek chips in the wild yet? | 11:11:05 |
| K900 | Aliexpress has some | 11:11:17 |
| K900 | Or at least has some listed | 11:11:41 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I was hoping for some nice 10g unmanaged switches | 11:11:43 |
| K900 | And by some I mean three | 11:11:59 |
| K900 | That's not the same chip | 11:12:03 |
| K900 | RTL8157 is USB 3.2 to 5GbE | 11:12:08 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | yeah it just reminded me, is all | 11:13:05 |
| K900 | The switch chips I have not seen anything with yet | 11:13:18 |
| K900 | But you'll see it on STH once it drops | 11:13:24 |
| K900 | Most likely | 11:13:25 |
 emily | those Realtek 10G chips still don't look all that good to me | 11:47:36 |
| emily | they seem to have power consumption comparable to the Broadcom thing | 11:47:42 |
| emily | there are already lower-power PHY chips, they're just not in anything | 11:47:55 |
| emily | * there are already lower-power 10GBASE-T PHY chips, they're just not in anything | 11:48:00 |

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241126022515.4043-6-hau@realtek.com/ My kernel mailing list search-foo is clearly not as good as yours, because I did search for that. How do you search in the mailing list? With the search field on lore, or in your mail client? | 12:02:54 |
| K900 | Just typed "rtl8157" into the search box on lore | 12:03:11 |
| K900 | And got a hit | 12:03:15 |
| Ramses 🇵🇸 | Thanks in any case, I'll try applying those patches | 12:03:18 |
| Ramses 🇵🇸 | Hmm, I put 8157 and didn't find anything | 12:03:37 |
| K900 | Yeah it tokenizes weird | 12:03:46 |
| K900 | Sometimes | 12:03:54 |

Download clipboard.png | 12:04:34 |
| @emma:rory.gay | offtopic but isnt that supposed to go into linux-firmware? :P | 12:04:46 |
| Ramses 🇵🇸 | Good to know :) | 12:04:52 |
