I have been trying to get this working on a 2019 MacBook Pro but get the following :

└─# dkms install -m applespi -v 0.1 128 ⨯

Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel. Skipping...

Building module:
cleaning build area...
make -j8 KERNELRELEASE=5.15.0-kali2-amd64...(bad exit status: 2)
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.15.0-kali2-amd64 (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/applespi/0.1/build/make.log for more information.

Make.log shows :

Any advice very much appreciated. Thanks

Having the same issue

Seems linux/input-polldev.h removed from linux newer kernel

I have the same issue on a 2018 MacBook Pro.
