Remove the soft link named source in /usr/src/linux-headers-5.10.201/ as it's unnecessary. Create a soft link named build at /lib/modules/5.10.201/ pointing to /usr/src/linux-headers-5.10.201:

#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/init.h>
static int __init hello_init(void)
{
printk(KERN_INFO "Hello, World!\n");
return 0;
}
static void __exit hello_exit(void)

}
module_init(hello_init);
module_exit(hello_exit);

First, set up a new directory and create the necessary files:
| Code Block |
|---|
sunplus@ubuntu:~$ sudo mkdir -p /usr/src/mymodule-1v1.0 [sudo] password for sunplus: sunplus@ubuntu:~$ cd /usr/src/mymodule-v1.0/ sunplus@ubuntu:/usr/src/mymodule-1v1.00$ sudo su echo -e "root@ubuntu:/usr/src/mymodule-v1.0# |
Then, create the following files:
Makefile:
| Code Block |
|---|
obj-m += mymodule.o\nall:\n\tmake all: make -C /lib/modules/\$(uname -r)/build M=\$(PWD) modules\nclean:\n\tmake clean: make -C /lib/modules/\$(uname -r)/build M=\$(PWD) clean" > /usr/src/mymodule-1.0/Makefile echo -e "#include <linux/init.h>\n#include <linux/module.h>\nstatic |
mymodule.c:
| Code Block |
|---|

dkms.conf:

Exit the superuser mode:
| Code Block |

Add, Build and Install DKMS Module
Add the module to DKMS:
| Code Block |
|---|
sunplus@ubuntu:/usr/src/mymodule-1.0$ sudo dkms add -m mymodule -v 1.0

Build the module:
| Code Block |
|---|
sunplus@ubuntu:/usr/src/mymodule-1.0$ sudo dkms build -m mymodule -v 1.0
