Error: Failed to read nvram contents

[OpenSauce04]

Running doas asahi-bless -l throws the following error:

Error: Failed to read nvram contents, try running with sudo? Inner error: Os { code: 2, kind: NotFound, message: "No such file or directory" }

I am using the sys-apps/asahi-bless ebuild from the official Gentoo repositories.

Please run ls /dev/mtd/by-name/ and post the output here. Also include the version of asahi-bless and if you are installing the kernel from sources, attach your kernel config

ls: cannot access '/dev/mtd/by-name/': No such file or directory

asahi-bless 0.4.1
I am using the asahi-kernel package from the asahi Gentoo overlay: https://github.com/chadmed/asahi-overlay/tree/main/sys-kernel/asahi-kernel

Make sure you are running the latest kernel, latest u-boot, and latest m1n1. After you did all that, run update-m1n1 one more time just to be sure and reboot.

Did those steps, still nothing there
I did notice however that while there isn't an /dev/mtd directory, there are files named /dev/mtd0 and /dev/mtd0ro. Do these have anything to do with this?

Those are the non-renamed versions of the relevant nvram device. The kernel has been changed to rename them to files under /by-name/, and that is where asahi-nvram looks for it. If kernel isn't renaming them for you, it means that your device trees are old.

/dev/mtd/by-name/* are created by udev rules. I would say supporting platforms not following defaults shouldn't be expected. However asahi-bless was missing an option to override the mtd device like the other commands. #34 adds -d DEVICE / --device DEVICE.
