Enable / Disable kernel module autoload and service autostart

[589290]

I'm looking for how to disable the wireguard kernel module from loading at boot time. As has been mentioned in other threads, the module must be re-compiled after every DSM update / Kernel upgrade. So, if the wg module loads at boot if not at first being upgraded after one of these things occurs, bad things happen.

Ideally, I'l like the kernel module to never load at boot and always have to be manually loaded. Via modprobe maybe? I'm not sure how that would happen either.

So, the 4 things I'm looking for specifically are:

1. command to disable autoloading the wg kernel module forever
2. command to disable the wg service from auto starting forever
3. command to manually load the wg kernel module
4. command to manually start the wg service
