I'm trying to update some drivers. After uninstalling the old drivers, removing the modules, and installing the new drivers, the new modules are unable to be added. For example: # make -j16 install [...] make -C /lib/modules/4.19.0-5-amd64/build M=/usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat INSTALL_MOD_DIR=updates modules_install make[3]: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-4.19.0-5-amd64' INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_200xx/qat_200xx.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_200xxvf/qat_200xxvf.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_c3xxx/qat_c3xxx.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_c3xxxvf/qat_c3xxxvf.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_c4xxx/qat_c4xxx.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_c4xxxvf/qat_c4xxxvf.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_c62x/qat_c62x.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_c62xvf/qat_c62xvf.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_common/intel_qat.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_d15xx/qat_d15xx.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_d15xxvf/qat_d15xxvf.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_dh895xcc/qat_dh895xcc.ko INSTALL /usr/local/src/QAT.L.4.20.0-00001/quickassist/qat/drivers/crypto/qat/qat_dh895xccvf/qat_dh895xccvf.ko DEPMOD 4.19.0-5-amd64 Warning: modules_install: missing 'System.map' file.
