Doublechecked that firmware builds with gentoo-sources-4.18.16. As soon as I switch to 4.19.0 I can emerge linux-firmware, but when building kernel, I get:

Have a system build running gentoo-sources-4.19 with 3x RX 480 and 1 x 580 successfully.

Thank you, for your comment. The thing is, that after having synced the system yesterday, I only have this version available:
emerge --search linux-firmware
Code: | * sys-kernel/linux-firmware
Latest version available: 20181026
Latest version installed: 20181026

And this one only builds until kernel gentoo-sources-4.18.16 for me.
zcat /proc/config.gz |grep CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE

I was able to boot kernel-4.19.0 but then X did not find any display thus no gui and I discovered that sddm had crashed. But I was able to start gdm and login with gnome (wayland?) session but not with X session.
When I then tried to recompile kernel, I found out that with this firmware version it would not finish successfully, and that the only ebuild version I have is 20181026. So I reverted back to kernel-4.18.16 and with this one the gpu kernel modules are successfully built, so I thought, its maybe worth a post, perhaps even filing a bug?

So it maybe only a problem with actual 20181026 version? Maybe I should search for ebuild file for older versions as I have.
Right Now I come from uniistall kernel sources 4.19.0 and deleted /usr/src/linux-4.19.0 and I am trying again.

Edit to add, that after deletion of /usr/src/linux-4.19.0 and re-emerge of gentoo-sources-4.19.0 followed by emerge of linux-firmware, everything is ok again, and kernel could compile successfully. I am not in front of the box and thus cannot test reboot immediately to check if X starts correctly.
I am wondering, if I should delete this post, as it is certainly not of much value.
I leave it to the moderator team to decide if its worth keeping it or if it should/can be deleted. In the meantime I put [solved] to its title |
