Created attachment 518336 [details] A build log of the failure at log level 3 This issue is also present when compiling kernel versions 4.14, and 4.9, however I was able to build 4.4 with --virtio successfully This issue is present in genkernel 3.5.2.5 build failure at log level 3 is attached.
genkernel-3.5.2.5 is quite old, please move to 3.5.3.3
Can confirm with a later version of genkernel: scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig * * Restart config... * * * Firmware Drivers * BIOS Enhanced Disk Drive calls determine boot disk (EDD) [N/m/y/?] n Add firmware-provided memory map to sysfs (FIRMWARE_MEMMAP) [Y/n/?] y BIOS update support for DELL systems via sysfs (DELL_RBU) [N/m/y/?] n Dell Systems Management Base Driver (DCDBAS) [M/y/?] m Export DMI identification via sysfs to userspace (DMIID) [Y/n/?] y DMI table support in sysfs (DMI_SYSFS) [N/m/y/?] n iSCSI Boot Firmware Table Attributes (ISCSI_IBFT_FIND) [N/y/?] n QEMU fw_cfg device support in sysfs (FW_CFG_SYSFS) [Y/n/m/?] y QEMU fw_cfg device parameter parsing (FW_CFG_SYSFS_CMDLINE) [N/y/?] (NEW) aborted!

It's aborting because it's prompting what to do with a new kernel option. https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/genkernel.git/commit/?id=bae8d8db8d8a49279f214c90c36ea5b64a982622 in git master fixes the problem. Please re-open if you are still able to reproduce with current git master.
