Good news: The module is *definitely* built and loads fine. Thanks!
Bad news: The driver has some issues... Full boot log attached, but first of all, spot the delay: ... [ 2.849454] mvpp2 MRVL0110:00 eth0: Using random mac address ee:ad:f4:3c:ad:cf ...

Then, the "rename4" interface gets IP over DHCP and things seems ok, until I start generating more traffic (like pulling a tarball from kernel.org)... Then the interface "hangs", ie. no more data gets in nor out, but without any messages in the kernel log. For better or worse, these symptoms more or less match what I observed using Debian Buster installer over the weekend, so I suspect it's an issue with "my" firmware (I believe others made it work on Macchiatobin). >From the "missing driver" perspective, the problem has been fixed :-) ** Attachment added: "dmesg.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1835054/+attachment/5275626/+files/dmesg.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1835054 Title: Missing NIC driver for Armada 8040 (Macchiatobin) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: At least in Ubuntu 19.04, the arm64 kernel (linux-image-5.0.0) is not building CONFIG_MVPP2 (depends on CONFIG_ARCH_MVEBU) - a driver for network controllers(s) in Marvell SOCs, particularly Armada 8040 - neither as a model or a built-in: $ uname -m aarch64 $ grep MVPP2 /boot/config-5.0.0-20-generic $ It makes very hard (and impossible for non-advanced users) to install and use Ubuntu on the Macchiatobin board (http://macchiatobin.net/) - a reasonably priced and performant server/mini-desktop platform.
