How to fix Aquantia 10 Gb Ethernet for Big Sur

[rankrotten]

Got my ASUS XG-C100C (AQ107) 10GBe card working by updating to the latest OC 0.8.0 with "Prefer Shikumo's Aquantia patch" commit.

Changes: OcAppleKernelLib: Prefer Shikumo's Aquantia patch View on GitHub (browse tree) Hashes: Debug: OpenCore-0.8.0-DEBUG.zip: 07ee8fb54b427ff6245ab4c58e96a8c77724f4c633f6112c3d0d35a1a73fccc6 Rel...

Adding the quirk ForceAquantiaEthernet = True to the plist along with DisableIOMapper = false and setting vt-d to enabled in bios

Card works at full 10GBe speed but have lost wifi, handoff and airdrop now.

Edit: VT-d enabled and setting DisableIOMapper = false disables my other network interfaces other then the AQ107

Got everything back working as before by following this post and replacing / dropping the DMAR tables.

Unlike @luckyal who's Slate driver seems to not want to stick on reboots, this does once reinstalled. Everything seems to be working now. I had to uninstall and reinstall VRS8 driver with SIP disabled so that the system security properly registers the vendor. For whatever reason it didn't want...

Cancelled my order for a Mac Studio as plenty of life still left in this Intel Hack

Reports of it working on other boards but it was compiled from a Z390. Best to ask in that thread.

I haven't been able to get this to work on an AMD-based system with DisableIOMapper = false and SVM on/off (doesn't have VT-D). Also tried with OC 0.80. There's something else conflicting here. I'm lost as to what to try. It's the same behavior as mentioned above, plug in ethernet cord = no IP and the system eventually hard freezes. The card works fine in Big Sur of course.

I don't have the solution but I've seen other people have the same issue. https://github.com/acidanthera/Open...674ec7a2aa1ce4860bbcc7#commitcomment-69632130

Thanks, I too have seen others with the same issue on AMD. I know it's a shot in the dark (and could be a hundred things) but does anyone have a direction or suggestion of other things to try to make this work on an AMD system? I made the mistake of finally upgrading to Monterey only to have this not work and it will be a bit of nightmare to try to roll back to Big Sur. Any help is greatly appreciated. I usually stay one release behind for a reason...oops.
