Hi,
I tried to compile my kernel and he fails on a previously available firmware driver (see avbove ). In the firmware it is not anymore present.
Anyone an explication for that and can it be fixed ?
Previous kernels/firmware did compile perfectly with the same config.
i need this for module r8169
I have seen it on Ubuntu too.

poe_1957,
Those files are still in the linux-firmware that I have.
As linux-firmware has got so big, its possible to select what gets installed. There are instructions at the end of the ebuild.
Look into the /etc/portage/savedconfig/... for the configuration file.
The sys-firmware entry lists what is to be installed. Its very easy to get that wrong.
Its so easy in fact, I gave up trying to get it right and made my root filesystem bigger instead.

I think someone should write a selection program that let's you choose the firmware to install.
But it schould contain the driver + for what hardware it is used to construct a savedconfig for portage. Instead of now that you need to consult different websites and pages before you know which driver to use. 
It is strange how much problems you have now due to the fact Linux is supporting soo many architectures. in 1993 you did know only one thing : your architecture is probably not supported but maybe you have luck and you find a driver is it not in the kermel than maybe somewhere else in another unix system....
Now you have the drivers and you cannot find them anymore in the wood.
I use the savedconfig file but even then it stands in the list with the correct path... | Code: | av7110/bootcode.bin

DAMMM !!!! I forgot the rtl8168fp-3.fw
BUT he says he has no rule to make from rtl_nic/rtl8125a-3.fw the .o file. even with the previously missing file.
every time.

I find it strange that (see above list he installs only this list amdgpu is missing f.e. it should normally install everything in the above list but he doesn't.

finally I reedited the file in vi and then he compiled iok.
