This page contains brief notes on building well-behaved Out-Of-Tree kernel modules .

The kernel headers package needed can be found using linux-headers-$(uname -r)

If the Makefile is well behaved, it should be as simple as running make

A well behaved Makefile will contain something like 

KVER := $(shell uname -r)
KPATH := /lib/modules/$(KVER)/build

all:
    $(MAKE) -C $(KPATH) M=$(CURDIR)
