The upcoming Linux 6.19 kernel cycle is set to introduce support for the Realtek RTL8125K as a forthcoming Ethernet ASIC.

The Realtek RTL8125K doesn’t appear to have been formally announced yet or at least isn’t showing up anywhere prominent online. The Linux enablement patches coming for the Linux 6.19 kernel put the RTL8125K as an extension of the Realtek RTL8125D 2.5G Ethernet ASICs already launched and supported by the mainline Linux kernel last year.
