mkinitcpio -p linux

This has been going on since I did a system update some time ago.
Now everytime I need to rebuild the kernel mkinitcpio fails, making the system unbootable. Chrooting in from a usb and launching mkinitcpio from there succeeds, allowing me to log in again but not solving the underlying problem.

I tried to look for those files while mkinitcpio is running and they're really not there. I suspect somehow it can't link (my /usr/lib64 is a symlink to /usr/lib, don't know if it's relevant) those files while building the image (but I don't understand why everything goes smoothly while doing it from the chroot).

I'm interest in fixing this and most of all in understanding what the hell is going on here (would like to delay the 'reinstall everything and hope it works' solutions).

/etc/mkinitcpio.conf

# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run.  Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array.  For instance:
#     MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
MODULES=""

# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image.  This is run last, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries included by a given hook
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=""

# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way.  This is useful for config files.
FILES=""

# HOOKS
# This is the most important setting in this file.  The HOOKS control the
# modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
# Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
# order in which HOOKS are added.  Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
# help on a given hook.
# 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
# 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules
# 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES
# Examples:
##   This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
##   No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.
#    HOOKS="base"
#
##   This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should
##   work as a sane default
#    HOOKS="base udev autodetect block filesystems"
#
##   This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
##   No autodetection is done.
#    HOOKS="base udev block filesystems"
#
##   This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.
##   Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm' for more information on raid devices.
#    HOOKS="base udev block mdadm encrypt filesystems"
#
##   This setup loads an lvm2 volume group on a usb device.
#    HOOKS="base udev block lvm2 filesystems"
#
##   NOTE: If you have /usr on a separate partition, you MUST include the
#    usr, fsck and shutdown hooks.
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck"

# COMPRESSION
# Use this to compress the initramfs image. By default, gzip compression
# is used. Use 'cat' to create an uncompressed image.
#COMPRESSION="gzip"
#COMPRESSION="bzip2"
#COMPRESSION="lzma"
#COMPRESSION="xz"
#COMPRESSION="lzop"
#COMPRESSION="lz4"

# COMPRESSION_OPTIONS
# Additional options for the compressor
#COMPRESSION_OPTIONS=""

uname -r

4.0.5-1-ARCH

EDIT: spelling.

Re: [SOLVED] mkinitcpio fails to build images

How is /tmp (currently) mounted and what are it's size & permissions? The error seems to come from https://projects.archlinux.org/mkinitcp … tions#n516 and `man install` will tell you that -D creates all parts of the given path, so there could be a problem with /tmp itself

Re: [SOLVED] mkinitcpio fails to build images

Thank you for you answer. Relevant ls -lah /

drwxrwxrwt  11 root root   280  9 giu 12.52 tmp

df -h /tmp

File system     Dim. Usati Dispon. Uso% Montato su
tmpfs           1,9G  784K    1,9G   1% /tmp

I believe /tmp is mounted by systemd (there's nothing in my /etc/fstab), so here is cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/tmp.mount

Re: [SOLVED] mkinitcpio fails to build images

That actually looks fine, I'm not sure what else could cause this

Re: [SOLVED] mkinitcpio fails to build images

does it show more info with -v (verbose)?

if not the full blast would be adding set -x (or #!/bin/bash -x) at the top of /usr/bin/mkinitcpio

Re: [SOLVED] mkinitcpio fails to build images

I figured it out <.<"

Some time ago I quickly wrote a script to test some stuff, named it 'stat' and then forgot to delete it; since I put all of them in /usr/local/bin that funny script was injecting random strings in place of the legit stat that mkinitcpio was calling.
Well, shame on me I guess I thank all of you for your time and expecially frostschutz: I noticed those random strings thanks to the -x flag (btw I learned just now about this flag, useful indeed ).
