How do you use this repo with displaylink driver? It was a pain to figure it out. Hopefully this solution helps:

mkdir 123
cd 123
git clone https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi.git
# please MANUALLY download this file before executing:
./displaylink-driver-x.x.x-xx.xxx.run --target displaylink --noexec
cd displaylink
tar -czf evdi.tar.gz -C ../evdi .
sudo ./displaylink-installer.sh uninstall
sudo rmmod evdi
sudo ./displaylink-installer.sh noreboot
sudo systemctl start displaylink-driver.service
