[Closed] Can't update Kernel

Hello there! Every time when I try to update my System(via yay) updating the Kernel fails.
I get the following output:

==> Starting build: 5.19.2-arch1-1
  -> Running build hook: [base]
  -> Running build hook: [udev]

The rest of the packages updates correctly, only the kernel won't.
PS: Sorry, I am to dump to figure out how to do a code block.

Re: [Closed] Can't update Kernel

What happens, if you also install btrfs-progs?

Does pacman work?

EDIT: why is this marked "[Closed]"? I thought only moderators were supposed to use that.

Yeah, it is not closed -- that is just in the title.  PythonPizza, if you could change the title to remove [CLOSED], that would be great.   If you want something closed, contact the moderators using the 'report' link and we will take care of it.  Thanks.

Re: [Closed] Can't update Kernel

To avoid all of those WARN messages, you need to install the following packages, even if the kernel is LTS or not:

==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: aic94xx
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: wd719x
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: xhci_pci
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: ast
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: bfa
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: qed
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: qla2xxx
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: qla1280

Please don't necrobump, especially with information that is unrelated to the problem.

Closing for real.
