Re: nvme not detected

Edit the file /etc/makepkg.conf,  change the line

#MAKEFLAGS="-j2"

to

MAKEFLAGS="-j$(nproc)"

ctrl+c to stop makepkg then start it again with the same arguments ( -rsif ) it will resume from where it left off.

If you wanted to set the option on invocation you would use:

MAKEFLAGS="-j$(nproc)"  makepkg -rsif

Re: nvme not detected

I was able to solve the problem. A firmware update (fwupd) of the nvme device leads to me being able to boot again using linux 5.11.
This is actually already documented in the wiki for my device nvme_issues, but for some reason I did not find this when I was initially looking for a solution a few months ago.

Since the underlying issue seems to be a firmware bug, I don't think continuing the bisect is useful (and I would need to downgrade the firmware to reproduce the initial error).

Anyway I am very happy that this has finally been resolved after struggling with this for 8 months now and deeply thankful for the support and great resources that the Arch community is offering. Thank you!
