kmod - Linux kernel module handling
db6f2fc7e1
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'. |

kmod - Linux kernel module handling OVERVIEW ======== kmod is a set of tools to handle common tasks with Linux kernel modules like insert, remove, list, check properties, resolve dependencies and aliases. These tools are designed on top of libkmod, a library that is shipped with kmod. See libkmod/README for more details on this library and how to use it. The aim is to be compatible with tools, configurations and indexes from module-init-tools project. Compilation and installation ============================ In order to compiler the source code you need following software packages: - GCC compiler - GNU C library Optional dependencies: - ZLIB library - LZMA library Typical configuration: ./configure CFLAGS="-g -O2" --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib Configure automatically searches for all required components and packages. To compile and install run: make && make install Hacking ======= Run 'bootstrap' script before configure. If you want to accept the recommended flags, you just need to run 'bootstrap-configure'. Make sure to read the CODING-STYLE file and the other READMEs: libkmod/README and testsuite/README.
