[[kmod]]
|
|
= kmod
|
|
|
|
Multi-call executable that implements: `lsmod`, `insmod`, `rmmod`, and
|
|
other tools on desktop distros such as Ubuntu 16.04, where e.g.:
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
ls -l /bin/lsmod
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
gives:
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul 25 15:35 /bin/lsmod -> kmod
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
and:
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
dpkg -l | grep -Ei
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
contains:
|
|
|
|
....
|
|
ii kmod 22-1ubuntu5 amd64 tools for managing Linux kernel modules
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
BusyBox also implements its own version of those executables. There are
|
|
some differences.
|
|
|
|
Buildroot also has a kmod package, but we are not using it since
|
|
BusyBox' version is good enough so far.
|
|
|
|
This page will only describe features that differ from kmod to the
|
|
BusyBox implementation.
