Installation
Firmware
Graphics
Systems using Skylake, Broxton, or newer Intel graphics will need additional firmware from the sys-kernel/linux-firmware package:
root #emerge --ask sys-kernel/linux-firmwareAlternatively, the blobs can be directly downloaded from the Linux repository.
DMC firmware
Display Microcontroller firmware provides support for advanced graphics low-power idle states.
GuC/HuC firmware
Graphics µController firmware offloads functions from the host driver. HEVC/H.265 µController firmware improves hardware acceleration of media decoding.

Warning
Including the firmware in-kernel may cause suspend-to-ram to fail, if this is a concern don't include the blob built into the kernel, instead, add the firmware blob into the initramfs.
