Here's where we're at with WireGuard distro kernel shipping support, as of writing (July 4, 2020): - Ubuntu Focal 20.04 LTS: native built-in - Ubuntu Eoan 19.10: native built-in - Ubuntu Bionic 18.04 LTS: native built-in - Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 LTS: dkms :( - Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 LTS: dkms :( - Debian: native built-in - Fedora: native built-in - Mageia: native built-in - Arch: native built-in - OpenSUSE: native built-in - SUSE Linux Enterprise: native built-in - Alpine: native built-in - Gentoo: native built-in - Exherbo: native built-in - NixOS: native built-in - RHEL/CentOS: dkms and elrepo kmod :( - Void: native built-in - Adélie: native built-in - Source Mage: native built-in - Buildroot: native built-in The rule of thumb here is: distros with kernel ≥ 5.6 have it native built-in, plus a few distros that have backported it, like Ubuntu, Debian, and SUSE. I'm in the process of working with other distros to get it backported; we'll see if I'm successful. I'm also maintaining a 5.4.y backport for distros who ship this LTS kernel (like Oracle's UEK), to make backporting it easier: <https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-linux/log/?h=backport-5.4.y> https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-linux/log/?h=backport-5.4.y>. There are instructions for each distro on <https://www.wireguard.com/install/> https://www.wireguard.com/install/>. If you're presently having "update troubles", make sure you're using the latest variant of any of the "native built-in" distros written above.
