| Features: |
| ========= |
| |
| * config: configs that do not need to be matched by fnmatch() could be using a |
| vector instead of a list. This way we could search in it by calling |
| bsearch(). |
| |
| * index: drop the "open(), seek(), read()" implementation and use another one |
| with mmap(). When lookup() is called and the file is not mmaped, mmap it. |
| |
| * create test-mock library to be LD_PRELOAD'ed before running the binaries |
| so we're able to create unit tests |
| |
| * provide ELF manipulation to implement modinfo |
| |
| * Add lookup for install commands in kmod_module_new_from_lookup() |
| |
| * Add lookup for remove commands |
| |
| * Add functions to dump configuration |
| |
| * Add functions list all modules known by modules.dep |
| |
| * Implement soft dependencies |
| |
| * provide 1:1 compatibility with module-init-tools's modprobe |
| - show modversions (needs elf manipulation) |
| - dump configuration |
| - use softdep |
| - install and remove commands may exist when there's no module with that |
| name. Properly handle this case |
| |
| * gzip support for modprobe |
| |
| Known Bugs: |
| =========== |
| |
| * modprobe -R should not try to load module |
| |
| Notes for future development: |
| ============================= |
| |
| * Kill support for /etc/modprobe.conf |
| |
| * Kill support for map files |
| |
| Things to be added removed in kernel (check what is really needed): |
| =================================================================== |
| |
| * list of currently loaded modules |
| |
| * module's size should be available under /sys |
| |
| * kill /proc/modules ? |
