Hi,

I have a raspberry pi 2. I am trying to make it run as a router. I have all of the router commands loaded, but it still won't route. I suspect that there's something in the kernel that is keeping it from working. It will ping the internet, but won't route.

When I type:
make menuconfig

It responds with:
make: *** No rule to make target 'menuconfig'. Stop.

Does anyone have a clue what is going on here?

Thanks,

donjames

Are you in a directory where the kernel source is when you type 'make menuconfig' ?

Hi dmpogo,

I am in the directory:
/var/db/gentoo/repos/gentoo/sys-kernel/gentoo-sources

Same result:
No rule to make target 'menuconfig'. Stop.

Hm, if you just did


emerge gentoo-sources

it installs sources in /usr/src/linux-xxxxxxxxx

so you need to be inside this directory to compile the kernel sources

donjames,

/var/db/gentoo/repos/... is the location where Gentoo stores data about the repos you have installed.

sys-kernel/gentoo-sources is not useful on a Raspberry Pi2. You must use sys-kernel/raspberrypi-sources.
There is a choice of 4.19 or 5.4. Both pull from the Foundation kernel git repo, which is sys-kernel/vanilla-sources patched by the Raspberry Pi Foundation.

NeddySeagoon,

emerge sys-kernel/raspberrypi-sources

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "sys-kernel/raspberrypi-sources" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-kernel/raspberrypi-sources-5.4.9999::gentoo (masked by: missing keyword)
- sys-kernel/raspberrypi-sources-4.19.9999::gentoo (masked by: missing keyword)

For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

What do I do now?

regards,
donjames

Add one of the following lines to /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords:
Code:
~sys-kernel/raspberrypi-sources-4.19.9999 **

Or:
Code:
~sys-kernel/raspberrypi-sources-5.4.9999 **

See the following Gentoo wiki article for details: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Knowledge_Base:Accepting_a_keyword_for_a_single_package

donjames,

Or clone the entire Foundation git repo into /usr/src/ and don't use portage to fetch the Pi kernel.

Whatever, don't start with make menconfig unless you already have a Pi2 .config file to drop into the kernel.
You need to set the default .config first.

I think you need
Code:
make bcm2709_defconfig
but check that a Pi2 is 2709.
That will set the .config file ready to build the default kernel as distributed by the Foundation.

NeddySeagoon,

The raspberrypi-sources emerge with no errors, but there is no .config file.

How do I clone the entire Foundation git repo into /usr/src/ ?

# make bcm2709_defconfig
make: *** No rule to make target 'bcm2709_defconfig'. Stop.

# locate 2709
/usr/src/linux-4.19.9999-raspberrypi/arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2709-rpi-2-b.dts
/usr/src/linux-4.19.9999-raspberrypi/arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2709-rpi.dtsi
/usr/src/linux-4.19.9999-raspberrypi/arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2709.dtsi
/usr/src/linux-4.19.9999-raspberrypi/arch/arm/configs/bcm2709_defconfig
/var/db/gentoo/repos/gentoo/.tmp-unverified-download-quarantine/dev-python/citeproc-py/files/b1a5f925527093b0b5c11507f379a908e3354820.patch
/var/db/gentoo/repos/gentoo/dev-python/citeproc-py/files/b1a5f925527093b0b5c11507f379a908e3354820.patch

I found bcm2709_defconfig. What do I do with it?



Thanks,

donjames

donjames,

Code:
# make bcm2709_defconfig
looks wrong.

You should be in /usr/src/<kernel-tree> when you
Code:
make bcm2709_defconfig


bcm2709 is correct. I cheated and looked in /boot on my Pi.
Code:
$ ls /boot/bcm*
/boot/bcm2708-rpi-0-w.dtb     /boot/bcm2710-rpi-2-b.dtb          /boot/bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb
/boot/bcm2708-rpi-b.dtb       /boot/bcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb          /boot/bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb_32
/boot/bcm2708-rpi-b-plus.dtb  /boot/bcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb_2        /boot/bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb_64
/boot/bcm2708-rpi-cm.dtb      /boot/bcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb_32       /boot/bcm2837-rpi-3-a-plus.dtb
/boot/bcm2708-rpi-zero.dtb    /boot/bcm2710-rpi-3-b-plus.dtb     /boot/bcm2837-rpi-3-b.dtb
/boot/bcm2708-rpi-zero-w.dtb  /boot/bcm2710-rpi-3-b-plus.dtb_32  /boot/bcm2837-rpi-3-b-plus.dtb
/boot/bcm2709-rpi-2-b.dtb     /boot/bcm2710-rpi-cm3.dtb          /boot/bcm2837-rpi-cm3-io3.dtb
roy@Pi4_~arm64 ~ $

/boot/bcm2709-rpi-2-b.dtb is the device tree for a Pi2.

Portage has just performed a shallow clone of your chosen kernel. You don't have all the history and branches of a full clone, the the current state of the kernel.
That's fine. The full git clone does not have a .config either. That's why you have to choose one to get started. There are 121 it my kernel.
To see them, look in arch/arm/configs/ it the kernel tree

NeddySeagoon,

It worked! I am now in the kernel configuration!

Thank you,

NeddySeagoon,

It works! I now have a Pi2 running as a router.

I was able to make a .config file and run "make menuconfig"


Thanks for your help,
donjames
