Converging threads.
Thanks all for the feedback. It sounds like there's no appetite for a
DKMS recipe, and I agree with the rationale for rejection.
I'll motion to have NI's DKMS recipe migrated to our meta-nilrt layer
and independently maintained until such a time as we can deprecate it.

Hello Alex,
with DKMS, do you mean cross-compiling out-of-kernel modules on the
build machine (that runs the Yocto/OpenEmbedded driven build)?
Or do you mean provisioning the target with enough tools to allow
compiling out-of-kernel modules there from source?
In the first case, yes, I can share
Hey List,
I'm trying to work out the mysterious state of DKMS in OE-Core.
Our (NI) OE distributions rely heavily on DKMS to (un)install our
ecosystem of kernel drivers at runtime across our product lines. To
facilitate that, we authored a dkms_2.4.0.bb recipe [1] back in 2017,
which we have
