Description Michiel Hazelhof 2023-11-10 10:36:47 UTC

The configuration settings "CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL" and "CONFIG_MICROCODE_AMD" have dissapeared from the 6.6.x branch.
https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/MICROCODE_INTEL.html

* Gentoo Linux Genkernel; Version 4.3.8
* Using genkernel configuration from '/etc/genkernel.conf' ...
* Running with options: all --install --no-splash --oldconfig --microcode=intel

* Working with Linux kernel 6.6.1 for x86_64
* Using kernel config file '/usr/share/genkernel/arch/x86_64/generated-config' ...
*
* Note: The version above is subject to change (depends on config and status of kernel sources).

* kernel: >> Initializing ...
*         >> --no-clean is set; Skipping 'make clean' ...
*         >> --no-mrproper is set; Skipping 'make mrproper' ...
*         >> Will ignore kernel config from '/usr/share/genkernel/arch/x86_64/generated-config'
*            in favor of already existing but different kernel config
*            found in '/usr/src/linux/.config' ...
*         >> Running 'make oldconfig' ...
*         >> Re-running 'make oldconfig' due to changed kernel options ...
* ERROR: Something went wrong: Required kernel option 'CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL' which genkernel tried to set is missing!
