missing include/generated/autoconf.h


I'm trying to compile my own little driver

printk(KERN_ALERT "Hello From KernelSpace");

that's all it does, but when I run make and sudo make it just barks back /include/generated/autoconf.h No file or Directory because there isn't the generated directory in my kernel headers. how do I get autoconf.h do I have to compile the kernel?
