seems it builds, but make dkms-install fails. See log test.log
today (but later. in the day-time) can try to make dkms module or install

Thanks. Good news it compiles - 95%'s done
That's weird that make dkms-install fails, need to investigate this. Found only piped wc output, could you post here the actual logs you have? Or please point me out where did I miss it :)

Oh, I think I clearly understand a problem now. And that's the problem of the current documentation status, actually
I recently introduced build system changes, that does not require any additional kernel sources linked within ./src folder, it just builds by using external kernel headers. So the action with kernel is redundant and should be skipped. Will update documentation soon
@olegStreejak, please proceed with removal of kernel from src and try to make dkms-install then

yes. Now it works like a charm. All commands succeed:

sudo dkms add -m amneziawg -v 1.0.0
sudo dkms build -m amneziawg -v 1.0.0
sudo dkms install -m amneziawg -v 1.0.0

it's installed and works now as far as I can see. Thank you all for your time and efforts!
