| Lucas De Marchi | 89eba7c | 2011-12-15 15:43:58 -0200 | [diff] [blame^] | 4 | First version of kmod and its library, libkmod. |
| 5 | |
| 6 | In the libkmod it's currently possible to: |
| 7 | - List modules currently loaded |
| 8 | - Get information about loaded modules such as initstate, refcount, |
| 9 | holders, sections, address and size |
| 10 | - Lookup modules by alias, module name or path |
| 11 | - Insert modules: options from configuration and extra options can be |
| 12 | passed, but flags are not implemented, yet |
| 13 | - Remove modules |
| 14 | - Filter list of modules using blacklist |
| 15 | - For each module, get the its list of options and install/remove |
| 16 | commands |
| 17 | - Indexes can be loaded on startup to speedup lookups later |
| 18 | |
| 19 | Tools provided with the same set of options as in module-init-tools: |
| 20 | - kmod-lsmod |
| 21 | - kmod-insmod |
| 22 | - kmod-rmmod |
| 23 | - kmod-modprobe, with some functionality still missing (use of softdep, |
| 24 | dump configuration, show modversions) |
