I'm try to switch from 'gentoo-sources' to 'gentoo-kernel' (6.1.7) Compiling the 'gentoo-sources' package works fine, with 'gentoo-kernel' I get always an error building the nouveau driver. 'make[6]: stat: /lib/firmware/nvidia/gp108/sec2/desc.bin: Permission denied' and more Reproducible: Always Expected Results: works same as with 'gentoo-sources' package

Hmm, that's interesting. I presume you're using the generic config and not a customized kernel config? Our -bin builds are done on top of installation image without linux-firmware installed, so I guess this is not strictly necessary. However, this also seems to indicate a permission problem. FWICS all files installed by linux-firmware are world-readable. Not sure if this is necessarily the best approach, though.
Oh wait, you are using a custom config. Please include your config then.

'sys-kernel/linux-firmware' is installed on my system.
What are the directory permissions all the way down to: /lib/firmware/nvidia/gp108/sec2/desc.bin ?

Please list the parent directories as well.

[drwx------ root root ] firmware That's your problem. If unprivileged users can't access firmware files, you can't expect userpriv builds to work.
