Hi Phil,
Thanks for looking at it. I'll remove my ath10k and rtl8723be drivers. I
thought you may have a quicker way of scanning all the sources for the
issue. I was going to append that the forcedeth driver also compiles
without change on 7.4 but effectively you've already found that out.
You're welcome.
I am not sure how I can get the two drivers tested. I use the r8169
driver just to remove r8168 driver compatibility and I don't think I can
use my production box for the ClearOS beta release. I'll have to check
with the devs.
Looking at kmod-r8169, I'm not sure it needs rebuilding for el7.4. The
current package weak-links against the 7.4 series kernels:
$ find /lib/modules/ -name r8169.ko | sort | grep 'extra\|weak'
/lib/modules/3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64/extra/r8169/r8169.ko

I don't have the hardware to test, but the module is present and loads
into the kernel just fine.
I'll also have to trace the ne2k-pci user and try and get them a message
if they follow the forums. If not, I guess they'll be back pretty soon
asking why their box does not work any more!
This one definitely does need rebuilding as it does not weak link
against 7.4 so the driver will be missing once the user boots to a 7.4
series kernel.
