WIP: Dynamic Kernel Module Support

  • Overview 40
  • Commits 2
  • Pipelines 13
  • Changes 8

Not yet completly tested, currently stuck on kernel sources on the pinephone. I dont think this is the best solution for automatic upgrading after a kernel upgrade.

  • DKMS runs
  • Getting a module packaged (sortof, has to be optimized, modules have versions too)
  • Exporting kernel headers (im slowly confused)
  • DKMS compiles the module on the device
  • module works

The dkms aport can perhaps be upstreamed to alpine?

See this comment

Not really. Several Alpine devs have already expressed their dislike of DKMS in the past, I severely doubt they want this.
