setup RTnet

setup RTnet

[Marco Barletta]

Hi everyone;
I was trying to setup RTnet but I found some problems. After removing
non-rt e1000e module and loading rt one, when I run rtnet start I got the
same output as
https://www.mail-archive.com/xenomai@xenomai.org/msg18342.html. I know this
is a known issue since the rt_e1000e doesn't work very well with i219-V
Intel ethernet controller, and I checked out patches in
https://www.mail-archive.com/xenomai@xenomai.org/msg16000.html. Anyway I
experienced some compile time issues with Xenomai 3.1, Linux 5.4.77. Do you
have an updated version tested toward this kernel version? On gitlab I see
the driver still doesn't support the controller.
Thank you very much for the effort.

Nothing recent is known to me.

As we know build up to 5.10, someone would have to set down again and
refresh / rebase the update. Best would be to split it into a vanilla
import of a specific mainline version + a patch on top that does the
needed adjustments. This time, I'll promise to look at things quicker.
