Small update : a bit better with [b]6.17.8-1-armv7-ARCH[/b]

end0 is created but

[code]
[ 41.610051] sun7i-dwmac 1c50000.ethernet end0: Register MEM_TYPE_PAGE_POOL RxQ-0
[ 41.632661] sun7i-dwmac 1c50000.ethernet end0: PHY [stmmac-0:01] driver [RTL8211E Gigabit Ethernet] (irq=POLL)
[ 41.863265] sun7i-dwmac 1c50000.ethernet end0: Failed to reset the dma
[ 41.870898] sun7i-dwmac 1c50000.ethernet end0: stmmac_hw_setup: DMA engine initialization failed
[ 41.879767] sun7i-dwmac 1c50000.ethernet end0: __stmmac_open: Hw setup failed
[/code]

I reverted to [b]6.16.7-1-armv7-ARCH[/b] and I confirm it's the last kernel working for the network.

Yeah i had problems too with linux-rpi 6.18-1, broke my start up process/network -> linux-rpi: (6.12.61-1 => 6.18-1).

So I did a downgrade to 6.12.61-1, It solved the problem temporarily, but will this be fixed in the next kernel version?

@mnemonic - the OP is not using the same kernel package you are... linux-armv7h is vanilla upstream whereas linux-rpi is the RPi Foundation's linux fork. He also has entirely different hardware.
