🧰 Kernel Headers Trigger Tool

If you are like me and you're installing the kernel from the source file, and it is not installed to the /usr/include directory despite being installed via pacman or another package manager — this tool is for you.

It automatically copies the kernel header files from the /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include directory to /usr/include, based on your current kernel version (uname -r).

🔧 Features
  • Detects your current kernel version using uname -r
  • Clears old header directories from /usr/include
  • Copies fresh headers directly from the kernel build include directory
  • Lightweight and fast
📁 Affected Directories

This tool handles the following directories inside the kernel source:

``` acpi, asm-generic, clocksource, crypto, cxl, drm, dt-bindings, generated, hyperv, keys, kunit, kvm, linux, math-emu, media, memory, misc, net, pcmcia, ras, rdma, rv, scsi, soc, sound, target, trace, uapi, ufs, vdso, video, xen
