Hello, friends!

For a awhile, I stuck with gentoo-kernel-bin to avoid rebuild the kernel for a minute, but I decided to go back just to try.

Weird thing happens, though. Upon going through the savedconfig I had for 6.6.35, updating some things, installing sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel, using dispatch-conf to update the kernel config from savedconfig, re-emerging the kernel with the new kernel config with some changes to harden the kernel and then restarting, I run into some weird stuff.

I reboot just fine, log in, but apparently IWD crashed. Weird, so I try running it manually (executable is in /usr/libexec/):

Code:

DES support not found
No CBC(DES3_EDE) support found, certain TLS connections might fail
The following options are missing in the kernel:
CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_SKCIPHER
CONFIG_CRYPTO_ECB
CONFIG_CRYPTO_CBC
CONFIG_CRYPTO_DES
The following optimized implementations might be available:
CONFIG_CRYPTO_DES3_EDE_X86_64

Okay, weird. I didn't mess with any of those in the kernel config when I was editing it. If I grep for those options in the savedconfig kernel config, all of those options are there, all set to either y or m.

Okay, let's look at what's in /usr/src/linux/.config....hm, okay that's all the same, too. Uh...use zgrep on /proc.config.gz?

Code:

/usr/bin/zgrep: line 254: /bin/gzip: Permission denied
/usr/bin/zgrep: line 269: /bin/grep: Permission denied

What? Okay, do I need to do it as root? Nope, same permission denied messages.

Uh, okay, I guess look at the config file in /efi/EFI/Gentoo?

Oh, uh, the vfat filesystem type isn't known? Now it's getting weirder.

I find this post:

https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-714737.html

And see the following reply:

verify if you have not the old fat (CONFIG_MSDOS_FS=y) support enabled (it tends to prevent the correct recognition of the filesystems) and are you sure than vfat is not present in the /proc/filesystems file (note than you must have CONFIG_FAT=y also)?
Is not normal, the only thing able to break the fat support is a misconfiguration in the codepages.
Have you build the kernel with genkernel? Try to remove the archived configuration and in every case do a make mrproper and reconfigure it from zero.
Just to be clear: if CONFIG_VFAT_FS=y you must have the codepages selected in CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE and CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET builtin, or modular only if CONFIG_VFAT_FS=m or the kernel modules autoload works properly.
By example I have:

Code:

CONFIG_FAT_FS=y
# CONFIG_MSDOS_FS is not set
CONFIG_VFAT_FS=y
CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE=850
CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET="iso8859-15"

and

Code:

CONFIG_NLS=y
CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT="utf8"
CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE_437=m
CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE_850=y
CONFIG_NLS_ASCII=m
CONFIG_NLS_ISO8859_1=m
CONFIG_NLS_ISO8859_15=y
CONFIG_NLS_UTF8=y

to prevent mistakes.

Okay, I look at the kernel config I've edited in the /etc/portage/savedconfig/sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-6.6.74 and see CONFIG_MSDOS_FS=y. That's one thing.
The other thing is CONFIG_VFAT_FS=m and it's not CONFIG_VFAT_FS=y. Likely doesn't matter, but I change it anyway.

I'm currently recompiling the kernel with the changes I've made the kernel config. Now the question is...can I reboot and things will work? If /efi isn't mounted and the vfat filesystem isn't known to the version of the kernel I was actually able to boot and recompile the kernel with, will it just failed at the end?

Do I need to boot into a live USB environment to update and recompile the kernel?

alecStewart1, You need to be able to install the kernel binary and update grub.cfg. Neither of those need to be an a VFAT filesystem.. Only grub.efi must be on the ESP (VFAT) and that need not change. It all depends on your partition/filesystem layout. You should be able to add VFAT as a module to your running kernel. Then you can modprobe vfat before you use it to mount anything. No reboot required. However, the kernel and all of its modules must be built with identical versions of gcc. A missing /boot or /efi filesystem driver can be fixed on the fly. _________________ Regards, NeddySeagoon Computer users fall into two groups:- those that do backups those that have never had a hard drive fail.

I don't use a bootloader. :wink:

I use ugrd as well and not dracut, as dracut stopped creating bootable initramfs for me altogether.

Ah, of course. I forgot you can enable modules on the fly. I'm kind of curious as to how MSDOS_FS got enabled to my kernel config, as I don't recall adding it.

Well, I already got onto my live USB environment (vfat is in /proc/filesystems after mounting and chrooting into the device that has Gentoo on it) and I'm recompiling the kernel. Good thing for me to remember in the future, though.

I'll report back if the changes to the kernel config worked.

The changes to my kernel config didn't fix things.

I did the following:

Code:

$ modprobe vfat
$ mount -a
$ sync

Tried restarting iwd, it crashed, ran /usr/libexec/iwd -d and got same message about the missing crypto modules as mentioned above.

I'll post my emerge --info and kernel config here in a second.

alecStewart1, As you use an EFI stub kernel, that must be installed to the ESP partition. That mean that your running kernel must be able to write VFAT to install a new kernel. Your choices are build VFAT support as a loadable module for your running kernel (if you can). Use another kernel with VFAT support for the install phase of the new kernel. _________________ Regards, NeddySeagoon Computer users fall into two groups:- those that do backups those that have never had a hard drive fail.

Apologies, I should've posted more info.

I already have an ESP partition. I've had one for quite some time. It's at /efi.

sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin works perfectly fine with booting with an EFI stub with installkernel and ugrd. EFI stubs and initramfs end up in /efi/EFI/Gentoo/. Building the dist kernel in the past has worked fine as well and I had the same ESP partition then. My issue seems, at least on the surface, some issue with the kernel configuration with the sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel. It's likely something I've broken, or maybe there's an option that I missed that could break booting with an EFI stub.

The diff I posted earlier is between the kernel config shipped with sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel-bin and what I've tried to use and what, as far I can tell, seems to be causing this issue with sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel.

Ah I see a problem. In the kernel config I have from savedconfig with sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel:

Code:

CONFIG_RESET_ATTACK_MITIGATION=y
CONFIG_EFI_DISABLE_PCI_DMA=y

From pietinger's Wiki page on KSPP:

Quote:

If you boot a stub-kernel directly from UEFI, these settings could harm your boot sequence (BIOS hangs): CONFIG_EFI_DISABLE_PCI_DMA and CONFIG_RESET_ATTACK_MITIGATION. Best is to try only one of them and (if ok) then enable the second option.

So that's one thing. I'll have to try later and see if this fixes things.

Bumping, as I'm unable to figure out what the issue is.

On gentoo-kernel 6.14.1, I get a black screen on attempting to boot into the EFI file made my ugrd and the compiled kernel.

Here's the following hardened options I have for that kernel from kernel-hardening-checker:

Code:

emerge --info

I have also a kernel:

* with 6.14.1
* booted directly via UEFI
* for an Intel machine
* hardened with KSPP (so also with: # CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS is not set / # CONFIG_LEGACY_TIOCSTI is not set)

but without using an initramfs because I have everything my kernel needs configured statically into it; especially everything to reach the NVMe and root partition AND also CONFIG_DRM_I915=y (means: I have also configured all the firmware files into: CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="i915/adls_dmc_ver2_01.bin intel-ucode/06-b7-01 rtl_nic/rtl8125b-2.fw i915/tgl_guc_70.bin i915/tgl_huc.bin")

If you get a black screen there are not so many options you could miss ... Console, FB, correct DRM ... maybe you need CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS is not set / # CONFIG_LEGACY_TIOCSTI is not set IF you have your DRM driver as a module (instead static). Here is my part of graphics:

You have in your .config this option: "CONFIG_VIDEOMODE_HELPERS=y" ... which is strange because it was removed in 6.14 ... have you done a correct "make oldconfig" ?

If we manage to get a video output the next problem could occur is this:

Code:

CONFIG_NVME_KEYRING=m
CONFIG_NVME_AUTH=m
CONFIG_NVME_TARGET=m

I'm using the dist-kernel with savedconfig. I assume that emerge would tell me to update the config file to remove that line, but it hasn't.

I'll look over and try (and maybe tweak) what you have and see if it works.

EDIT: As of note, I have a AMD GPU.

If you get a black screen there are not so many options you could miss ... Console, FB, correct DRM ... maybe you need CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS is not set / # CONFIG_LEGACY_TIOCSTI is not set IF you have your DRM driver as a module (instead static). Here is my part of graphics:

Code:

CONFIG_NVME_KEYRING=m
CONFIG_NVME_AUTH=m
CONFIG_NVME_TARGET=m

I didn't really need to change much...I removed CONFIG_VIDEOMODE_HELPERS=y and after that was a view tweaks.

I already have both

# CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS is not set
# CONFIG_LEGACY_TIOCSTI is not set

So I'm not really sure what else I need to change at this point.

I have a strong suspicion that you are editing your .config. If this was the case, then throw it away. [1]

If not, there is still the question of why the old setting survived. If you want to use an existing configuration, you MUST APPLY it with “make oldconfig”.

As you have already read my article about KSPP, you are probably familiar with the other articles. Perhaps it was too much effort for you to set everything manually yourself and you thought that adjusting the dist-kernel-config should be enough.

The only procedure (besides [2]) I can recommend is:

1. boot with our GentooLiveCD
2. chroot into your installation
3. change to /usr/src/linux
4. make distclean
5a. make allmodconfig -- HERE you still need an initramfs (dracut or ugrd)
-or-
5b. make allyesconfig -- HERE you must add the CPU microde file and all firmware files into your kernel [3]
6. make
7. install the kernel (and intramfs IF 5a) EITHER via grub or via UEFI

IF this kernel boots, then you can make all security settings afterwards [4] via "make menuconfig".

[1] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Manual_kernel_configuration#Never_edit_.config
[2] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Manual_kernel_configuration
[3] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Manual_kernel_configuration#Driver_needs_Firmware
+ https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1065464.html
[4] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Manual_kernel_configuration#Cheat_Sheets

BTW: You said you try to boot this kernel via UEFI. Maybe show us also the output of "efibootmgr" + "blkid" + "lsblk" + "fdisk -l" + "ls -l" of your mounted ESP

P.S.: Maybe read these two articles to get an idea how "complicated" a manually configuration can be: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Manual_kernel_configuration#Is_a_.22make_defconfig.22_required_before_starting.3F https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1168856.html and yes, FB had great changes between 6.12 and 6.14 _________________ https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger

After sleeping on it for a night, i woke up today with a question:

Do you mean you have

- an AMD CPU (with integrated AMDGPU), or
- an Intel CPU with an AMD graphics card

?

The reason I thought you had an Intel CPU is this:

Code:

CONFIG_MALDERLAKE=y

(which is of course completely wrong for an AMD CPU)

The second. Alderlake CPU with my AMDGPU, which is listed as Navi 22 [Radeon RX 6700/6700 XT/6750 XT / 6800M/6850M XT].

I'm going through your tutorials and making sure I've got everything I need: wireless stuff, making sure I have accidentally <*> a module instead of <M> since I'm fine with having a separate initramfs/initrd.

Okay, after looking through pietinger's guide and checking things with kernel-hardening-checker here's the config I have so far: http://dpaste.com/CML6V5P7R

Do you have a problem when booting it? If yes, then remove this:

Code:

CONFIG_FB_RADEON=m
CONFIG_FB_RADEON_I2C=y
CONFIG_FB_RADEON_BACKLIGHT=y

Use only FB_EFI and VESA (and maybe "Simple" to be on a safe side). All other dont work correct.

BTW: If you dont need this then it is not a problem ... but maybe you need it:

Code:

# CONFIG_SPI is not set
# CONFIG_PINCTRL_ALDERLAKE is not set
# CONFIG_MFD_INTEL_LPSS_ACPI is not set
# CONFIG_MFD_INTEL_LPSS_PCI is not set

Best is always to boot our GentooLiveCD and gather some information with no. 2 of:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Manual_kernel_configuration#Before_you_start
AND dmesg
( https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Overview_of_System_Information#dmesg )

Okay, at the very least I can say I got a different result instead of just a black screen.

The following error happens whenever I boot into the EFI file (may not be complete since I had to take a picture with my phone.)

Code:

* Failed to mount the root partition using /proc/cmdline
mount: /target_rootfs: can't find UUID=long-uuid
* Failed to mount root partition
* Press enter to break, waiting: 1.0s

Currently in the Gentoo LiveGUI so I can check a bunch of things.

This is very good. It means UEFI has found your kernel and booted it ... only the initramfs has the "little" problem to mount the root partition because it does not know what the root partition is ... it misses the kernel command line parameter "root=UUID=...."

When you boot via UEFI you have two choices to give the kernel/initrmafs this information:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Kernel_Commandline_Parameter#What_always_work
-or-
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Kernel_Commandline_Parameter#Using_UEFI

... now is the time to check what I asked for ->

BTW: You said you try to boot this kernel via UEFI. Maybe show us also the output of "efibootmgr" + "blkid" + "lsblk" + "fdisk -l" + "ls -l" of your mounted ESP

(In the output blkid there is a UUID and a PARTUUID ... you need the UUID)

I guess you need only "efibootmgr" and then efibootmgr -c ...... -u "root=UUID=.....ro initrd=\EFI\....."

* Press enter to break, waiting: 1.0s

This is very good. It means UEFI has found your kernel and booted it ... only the initramfs has the "little" problem to mount the root partition because it does not know what the root partition is ... it misses the kernel command line parameter "root=UUID=...."

When you boot via UEFI you have two choices to give the kernel/initrmafs this information:

-or-
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Kernel_Commandline_Parameter#Using_UEFI

... now is the time to check what I asked for ->

BTW: You said you try to boot this kernel via UEFI. Maybe show us also the output of "efibootmgr" + "blkid" + "lsblk" + "fdisk -l" + "ls -l" of your mounted ESP

I guess you need only "efibootmgr" and then efibootmgr -c ...... -u "root=UUID=.....ro initrd=\EFI\....."

Okay I can see the mistake: You took the current output of "efibootmgr" of your distkernel and made with this data the entry for your kernel ... BUT ... there is a difference:

Code:

root=UUID="963bf51

root=UUID=963bf

You must do a efibootmgr -c ...... -u "root=UUID=.....ro initrd=\EFI\..... ....... . ....... "
and NOT a
efibootmgr -c ...... -u "root=UUID="....." ro initrd=\EFI\..... ....... . ....... "

Oh god, that's probably it. Let me rebuild the kernel and EFI file and try again.
