Hello,
I'm having trouble getting the usb ports on my laptop to work. lspci shows:

Code:

00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 100 Series/C230 Series Chipset Family USB 3.0 xHCI Controller (rev 31)
04:00.0 USB controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1142 USB 3.1 Host Controller


If i boot manjaro, lspci -k shows that the xhci_hcd module is being used for both. I built the xhci module into my gentoo kernel (currently gentoo-sources-5.11.14). If I boot gentoo and lspci -k, it shows no module for that hardware. dmesg | grep xhci returns nothing.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look next?
Thanks!

Not really, but check the kernel version:

Code:
file /path/to/your/installed/kernel_image

versus
Code:
uname -a

Code:
> uname -a
Linux rlt 5.11.14-gentoo #7 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 19 07:33:14 PDT 2021 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux


Code:
file /boot/efi/kern
/boot/efi/kern: Linux kernel x86 boot executable bzImage, version 5.11.14-gentoo (root@rlt) #7 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 19 07:33:14 PDT 2021, RO-rootFS, swap_dev 0x6, Normal VGA


Does that reveal anything?

Yes, your booted kernel is the same as you think it should be.

Only in your kernel config !


I think you made the kernel config by yourself and you did a stub kernel. The only question is:

Did you made all configurations with "make menuconfig" or did you some configurations by editing the .config ?

You know, when you activate some parameters in the kernel config, this can lead to (invisible) activating of other parameters ?

You didn't miss CONFIG_USB_PCI ... did you?
