ip tuntap add error: open: No such device

I run this command in arch with kernel 6.4.12-arch1-1 to create tun0 network interface:

$ip tuntap add mode tun tun0
open: No such device

The error is "open: No such device", then i run this command to check the tun module:

$lsmod | grep tun
ip6_udp_tunnel         12288  1 wireguard
udp_tunnel             24576  1 wireguard

Then i tired this command:

$ modprobe tun
modprobe: FATAL: Module tun not found in directory /lib/modules/6.4.12-arch1-1

Also i tried the "modprobe tun.kvo" but got the above error.
