将外部Linux内核模块安装到/ lib / modules /`uname -r` /目录中

Question

I have a small USB driver kernel module, Now I want to install this module into running kernel directory ie (/lib/modules/ uname -r /). Which should also updates modules.alias and modules.usbmap file.

Any script available to install the external kernel module?

Thanks

all:  
    make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules  

install:  
    make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules_install  

clean:
    make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) clean

Do "make" and "make install"

--- 5.2 INSTALL_MOD_DIR

External modules are by default installed to a directory under
/lib/modules/$(KERNELRELEASE)/extra/, but you may wish to
locate modules for a specific functionality in a separate
directory. For this purpose, use INSTALL_MOD_DIR to specify an
alternative name to "extra."

    $ make INSTALL_MOD_DIR=gandalf -C $KDIR \
           M=$PWD modules_install
    => Install directory: /lib/modules/$(KERNELRELEASE)/gandalf/
