View File

@ -21,6 +21,23 @@ Features:
- show modversions (needs elf manipulation)
- dump configuration
* provide modules.archive, a cache file with all modules compressed
and a fast access. It's like a tar.gz, but with each entry
compressed as opposed to the whole tar compressed, easy to pick
individual entries, that is, more like .gz.tar. As zlib compression
does not store the uncompressed file size, this could provide
it. The file format should be something like:
MAGIC-ID
DIRECTORY-ENTRY-SIZE
DIRECTORY (hash-like format, points to file offset and size)
ENTRIES (each is a compressed module)
Helper binary to:
kmod-archive list
kmod-archive add path.ko
kmod-archive rm path.ko
kmod-archive get path.ko
kmod-archive exists path.ko
