Put this one /etc/modprobe.d/bougs.conf:
alias psmouse deaddood
`modprobe --show-depends --quiet psmouse` explodes in an assertion
(unless you have a module named deaddood). Some people and initrd's use
"alias psmouse off" to disable a module instead of blacklisting it or
adding a install rule.
Add a test with expected_fail == true before fixing this.
This loop is similar to the one that comes with install rules of
alsa-utils package. It can be easily verified by reverting commit
abd5557 and running the testsuite.
Search modules.builtin file before saying the module was not found.
Note: these "modules" should not appear as dependencies of other modules
(in modules.dep) even if they appear in modinfo. This fixes the return
code of modprobe with builtin modules.
Also fixes a small coding style issue in module_is_inkernel().
When user tries to load a module that is builtin in kernel, modprobe
should just return 0. This is not happening right now, so mark test as
expected_fail until it gets fixed.
Functions that always call exit() should be marked with attribute
noreturn. With glibc this is not necessary, but it fails to compile with
uClibc otherwise.
test 1 - check whether modprobe outputs the right thing when
using --show-depends is used with already loaded modules.
test 2 - check whether modprobe outputs the right thing when
using --show-depends with modules not loaded yet
