[SOLVED]Problem with new mkinicpio

I'm getting this:
Possibly missing firmware for module: 'csiostor'

What package should I install to get rid of this warning?

Re: [SOLVED]Problem with new mkinicpio

Do you not have the linux-firmware package installed that provides /usr/lib/firmware/cxgb4/t6fw.bin.xz and /usr/lib/firmware/cxgb4/t5fw.bin.xz ?

Re: [SOLVED]Problem with new mkinicpio

I find the same error:

Re: [SOLVED]Problem with new mkinicpio

To me it looks like the firmware files still get packed in the initramfs, despite the warning.

Try https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/ … quests/229, it should fix it.

Re: [SOLVED]Problem with new mkinicpio

OK, I see where the issue is. add_firmware doesn't return 0 if a firmware file already exists in BUILDROOT.

I added another commit to the MR, "functions: fix add_firmware return code if a file already exists in BUILDROOT". Please try again. This one really should fix it.

Is this the right way to apply the patch?

$ wget https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/mkinitcpio/mkinitcpio/-/merge_requests/229.patch
# cd /usr/lib/initcpio
# patch -i /home/me/229.patch
patching file functions
patching file functions

But when I run the update, I still get the warnings:

Those are not the warnings talked about in this thread. Totally different issue, or non-issue.

Re: [SOLVED]Problem with new mkinicpio

Is this not the thread of finding the solution for

Possibly missing firmware for module: 'csiostor'

All the firmware are installed, the t5 / t6 firmware are there in firmware/ but still warning appears when ever running mkinitcpio
Is this the problem of new mkinitcpo or is my arch missing some firmware

Yes, this is a thread about that. It's an issue in mkinitcpio. Mind that the issue is just the misleading message, the firmware files should still be successfully placed in the initramfs image.

Only the person how starts a thread knows when it is solved.   Edit your first post in the thread and it will let you change the title.  Just prepend [SOLVED] to the title.
