The second test, that creates the module by name and then retrieves the
initstate was broken before b95fa91 ('Fix race while loading modules').
We would check /sys and return either builtin (if the module has
parameters) or give an error because we don't find the module (even if
it's in the modules.builtin index)
We need to let these instructions in kmod to be the last executed ones.
Otherwise the subdirectory containing the modules could propagate up the
time access.
Instead of shipping pre-compiled module, this prepares the build system
to be able to compile the necessary modules from module-playground. This
preparations starts by replacing md5.ko with our own dummy
mod-simple.ko, built from source. It works by copying the modules to
their final location while preparing the rootfs.
Some tests cover internal API that wasn't used
elsewhere. The choice here was to test and keep the
list implementation complete instead of removing it.
If we are accessing a file inside the build directory we should really
not trap the path. Right now this isn't important because we never do
such accesses. However it will be needed when gcov is integrated because
it dumps files to the same place where the binaries are located.
The -fdiagnostics-color flag is only available on GCC >= 4.9, for
older versions this could raise an error in certain circumstances
(such as when using ccache). Instead, since -fdiagnostic-color=auto
by default in gcc-4.9, simply set the required environment variable
to the default one if it's undefined.
Based mostly on the systemd commit f44541bc by Michal Schmidt.
Add --enable-python configure switch so we build the python bindings. We
also pass version.py through SED_PROCESS macro, so the version is kept
in sync with kmod.

If we are note building in the existing source tree and have disabled
dependency-tracking then the testsuite directory is not created during
the configure phase and will not exist when the cp of ROOTFS_PRISTINE
occurs, thus causing an error and fail.
Instead of linking dynamically with libkmod, use libkmod-private.la. We
disallow creating a static libkmod because we can't hide symbols there
and it cause problems with external programs. However this should not
prevent users that are only interested in the tools we provide not being
able to ship only them keeping the library alone.
Other projects also do this to allow our tools to use certain functions
that should not be used outside of the project.
The reason to have a kmod-nolib binary is that we need to call kmod on
test cases (or a symlink to it) and for testing things in tree. Since
we are using libtool if we are dinamically linking to libkmod what we
end up having is a shell script that (depending on the version *)
changes argv[0] to contain an "lt-" prefix. Since this screws with our
compat stuff, we had a kmod-nolib that links statically.
This all workaround works fine iff we are using one of the compat
commands, i.e. we are using the symlinks insmod, rmmod, modprobe, etc.
However if we are actually trying the kmod binary, this doesn't work
because we can't create a kmod symlink since there's already a kmod
binary.
So, completely give up on libtool fixing their mess. Now we create a
tool/test/ directory and the symlinks and kmod is put there.

This tool reads modules.devname from the current kernel directory and outputs
the information. By default in a human-readable format, and optionally in
machine-readable formats.
For now only the tmpfiles.d(5) format is supported, but more could easily be
added in the future if there is a need.
This means nothing but kmod needs to reads the private files under
/lib/modules/. In particular systemd-udevd can stop reading modules.devname.
Tools that used to read /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.devname directly, can
now move to reading 'kmod static-nodes devname'.
Depending on kernel header and simply not passing the flags in
finit_module() if this header is not found is not good.
Add a missing.h header in which stuff like this should be added.
If the module is built with CONFIG_MODULE_SIG, add the the signer's
name, hexadecimal key id and hash algorithm to the list returned in
kmod_module_get_info(). The modinfo output then looks like this:

The signature algorithm (RSA) and key identifier type (X509) are not
displayed, because they are constant information for every signed
module. But it would be trivial to add this. Note: No attempt is made at
verifying the signature, I don't think that modinfo is the right tool
for this.
