introduction

Dynamic Kernel Module Support (DKMS) builds Linux kernel modules whose sources reside outside the kernel source tree. It automates rebuilding of such modules when a new kernel is installed.

dkms add -m tn40xx -v linux-6.7.y-1

build driver for current kernel

dkms install -m tn40xx -v linux-6.7.y-1

build driver for specific kernel version

dkms install -m tn40xx -v linux-6.7.y-1 -k [kernel_version]
