I get this error in my boot log:

Jun 16 03:54:55 limelight kernel: cx25840 2-0044: Direct firmware load
for v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw failed with error -2
Jun 16 03:54:55 limelight kernel: cx25840 2-0044: unable to open
firmware v4l-cx23885-avcore-01.fw

I can get this file, but I have not figured out where I am supposed to
put it.

Thanks

There should be a /lib/firmware containing all the firmware files.
See the linux-firmware ebuild for the exact location.

Thanks. Installing linux-firmware and adding this file to my initrd in
Dracut configuration solved my issue.
