Hi, Since 4.19 r8169 depends on phylib:
$lsmod | grep r8169 r8169 81920 0 libphy 57344 2 r8169,realtek Unfortunately this now gives me the following sysfs error: $cd /sys/module/realtek/drivers $ls -l ls: cannot access 'mdio_bus:RTL8201F 10/100Mbps Ethernet': No such file or directory total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 24 21:09 'mdio_bus:RTL8201CP Ethernet' -> '../../../bus/mdio_bus/drivers/RTL8201CP Ethernet' l????????? ? ? ? ? ? 'mdio_bus:RTL8201F 10/100Mbps Ethernet' lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 24 21:09 'mdio_bus:RTL8211 Gigabit Ethernet' -> '../../../bus/mdio_bus/drivers/RTL8211 Gigabit Ethernet' [..] Apparently the forward slash in "10/100Mbps Ethernet" is interpreted as directory separator that leads nowhere, and was introduced in commit 513588dd44b ("net: phy: realtek: add RTL8201F phy-id and functions"). Would it be acceptable to change the name simply to "RTL8201F Ethernet"? thanks, Holger
