Realtek's r8168 driver defaults to CONFIG_ASPM=1 but I guess some users need to disable it and there's no known pattern / blacklist, right ?
When enabling the ASPM, it would influence the thrpughput. It is hard to choose performance or power saving. Therefore, we reserve the config to let the user determines it. Best Regards, Hayes
