In fact under /usr/src there is nothing.

Something change or would anyone have any ideas of what might have
happened, and how to fix?

I don't know why/how it happened, but that is where the source code
for your linux kernel *should* be.

Just as an example, I use the "sys-kernel/gentoo-sources" package for
my kernel source code.  There are many other kernel source packages you
can choose from, but if you have no special reason for using some other
kernel, I suggest you "emerge gentoo-sources" to restore that directory.

Once the kernel source code is restored to /usr/src/linux, you will
need to configure your custom kernel (if you use a customized kernel).

Do you understand what I've said so far?  If not, tell us where you
got lost :)
