Has something changed in 4.14.7-gentoo sources from its predecessors?
I'm getting this on two systems:
[snip ...]
INSTALL sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-codec-hdmi.ko
INSTALL sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-codec.ko
INSTALL sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko
DEPMOD 4.14.7-gentoo
make: *** No rule to make target 'firmware_install'. Stop.
Yes, there is a change to drop the target rule ‘firmware_install’ [1].
I’ve noticed also [2] but in the end it seems the rule is finally
dropped:
/usr/src/linux-4.12.12-gentoo/scripts/Makefile.fwinst ... exists
/usr/src/linux-4.14.4-gentoo/scripts/Makefile.fwinst ... no such file
To check it’s there look for ‘Other generic targets’ in kernel dir:
sudo make help
or just grep:
grep -q 'firmware_install' /usr/src/linux/Makefile
