Dynamic Kernel Module Support
I'm installing wifi adaptor drivers (rtl8821au/rtl8812au) in kali-nethunter! (resource used: [airmon-ng](https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au), [github.com/nlkguy/archer-t2u-plus-linux](https://github.com/nlkguy/archer-t2u-plus-linux)) And then I get this error! ``` mkdir: created directory '/usr/src/8812au-5.6.4.2_35491.20191025' cp -r * /usr/src/8812au-5.6.4.2_35491.20191025 dkms add -m...
As mentioned earlier https://github.com/dell/dkms/pull/314#discussion_r1143214028 it would be great if we get a bit of coverage about the interaction between different BUILD_EXCLUSIVE options. The link covers the kernel/kernel_min/kernel_max combination. With https://github.com/dell/dkms/pull/269...

I have different kernels on my system, which were built using different versions of GCC. I need to make sure `dkms` uses the correct GCC version for each individual kernel....
Until v3.0.8 dkms simply sourced configuration files and it was possible to store the key passphrase there in the KBUILD_SIGN_PIN environment variable. Since v3.0.9 the `safe_source()` function has been introduced...
Due to its age (et al) dkms has various styles mixed in. Most prominently - it does not use safe(r) bash constructs line `[[` and `((`, `set -euo pipefail`, while...
There are various ones out there, so I'm not sure which is the best one. Would be great it the MR author says a few words about their chosen one.
Today dkms sources the dkms.conf, effectively treating it as a shell script instead of data/configuration file. That in itself isn't great since: - it can have code flow relying on...
Without this change, when passing multiple -k to `dkms mktarball`, only the first one would be added to the tarball.
As many of you have seen in the news XZ suffered a very serious vulnerability recently. Looking through the various discussions and reflecting, here are some actions I would love...
