 Compatibility with module-init-tools
 ====================================
 
-kmod replaces module-init-tools, which is end-of-life. Most of its tools are
-rewritten on top of libkmod so it can be used as a drop in replacements.
-Somethings however were changed. Reasons vary from "the feature was already
-long deprecated on module-init-tools" to "it would be too much trouble to
-support it".
-
-There are several features that are being added in kmod, but we don't
-keep track of them here.
-
-modprobe
---------
-
-* 'modprobe -l' was marked as deprecated and does not exist anymore
-
-* 'modprobe -t' is gone, together with 'modprobe -l'
-
-* modprobe doesn't parse configuration files with names not ending in
-  '.alias' or '.conf'. modprobe used to warn about these files.
-
-* modprobe doesn't parse 'config' and 'include' commands in configuration
-  files.
-
-* modprobe from m-i-t does not honour softdeps for install commands. E.g.:
-  config:
-
-        install bli "echo bli"
-	install bla "echo bla"
-	softdep bla pre: bli
-
-  With m-i-t, the output of 'modprobe --show-depends bla' will be:
-        install "echo bla"
-
-  While with kmod:
-        install "echo bli"
-        install "echo bla"
-
-* kmod doesn't dump the configuration as is in the config files. Instead it
-  dumps the configuration as it was parsed. Therefore, comments and file names
-  are not dumped, but on the good side we know what the exact configuration
-  kmod is using. We did this because if we only want to know the entire content
-  of configuration files, it's enough to use find(1) in modprobe.d directories
-
-depmod
-------
-
-* there's no 'depmod -m' option: legacy modules.*map files are gone
-
-lsmod
------
-
-* module-init-tools used /proc/modules to parse module info. kmod uses
-  /sys/module/*, but there's a fallback to /proc/modules if the latter isn't
-  available
+kmod replaced module-init-tools, which was EOL'ed in 2011. All the tools were
+rewritten on top of libkmod and they can be used as drop in replacements.
+Along the years there were a few behavior changes and new features implemented,
+following feedback from Linux kernel community and distros.
