[elrepo] r8125 for EL9 x86_64

[Greg Gilmour]

Greetings,

I'm hoping there maybe plans to build the Realtek RTL-8125 driver for RHEL EL9 and derivatives? Dmesg is reporting "r8169 xxxx:yy:zz.z: error -ENODEV: unknown chip XID 688, contact r8169 maintainers" when it attempts to using the built-in Realtek 8169 kernel drivers.

I see that a "kmod-r8125" package has been compiled for EL8 [0],[1]. I've tested this version successfully on a Rocky Linux 8.10 install, but I am looking to go with Rocky 9.x as it is newer and has a longer life, newer 5.14 Linux kernel, and I plan on running ZFS and prefer to use a newer release for EL9.

Thanks!
