Hi, I have a host with two identical ethernet devices (Intel 82573L). Both devices work great with the e1000e module, and with the rt_e1000e module. I would like to use the first ethernet device with the e1000e module to connect to the LAN, and the second ethernet device with the rt_e1000e module to communicate with an EtherCAT slave.
The problem I run into is that when I load the e1000e module, the kernel logs show that it detects and registers both ethernet devices. But when I load the rt_e1000e module after that, the kernel logs show that it does not detect any devices any more. When I swap the order, and first load the rt_e1000e module, it detects and registers both ethernet devices, but then the e1000e module can't find any devices any more. So pretty much, whichever module I load first claims both devices. This behavior is confirmed by both the kernel logs and by running (rt_)ifconfig. Is there a way to limit a module to a single device at load time, so it would not claim both devices at once? Or should I be looking at a different type of solution? Any help is appreciated!
