menu "Linux Module Utilities"
config INSMOD
bool "insmod"
default n
help
insmod is used to load specified modules in the running kernel.
config FEATURE_INSMOD_VERSION_CHECKING
bool "Module version checking"
default n
depends on INSMOD && FEATURE_2_4_MODULES
help
Support checking of versions for modules. This is used to
ensure that the kernel and module are made for each other.
config FEATURE_INSMOD_KSYMOOPS_SYMBOLS
bool "Add module symbols to kernel symbol table"
default n
depends on INSMOD && FEATURE_2_4_MODULES
help
By adding module symbols to the kernel symbol table, Oops messages
occuring within kernel modules can be properly debugged. By enabling
this feature, module symbols will always be added to the kernel symbol
table for properly debugging support. If you are not interested in
Oops messages from kernel modules, say N.
config FEATURE_INSMOD_LOADINKMEM
bool "In kernel memory optimization (uClinux only)"
default n
depends on INSMOD && FEATURE_2_4_MODULES
help
This is a special uClinux only memory optimization that lets insmod
load the specified kernel module directly into kernel space, reducing
memory usage by preventing the need for two copies of the module
being loaded into memory.
config FEATURE_INSMOD_LOAD_MAP
bool "Enable load map (-m) option"
default n
depends on INSMOD && ( FEATURE_2_4_MODULES || FEATURE_2_6_MODULES )
help
Enabling this, one would be able to get a load map
output on stdout. This makes kernel module debugging
easier.
If you don't plan to debug kernel modules, you
don't need this option.
config FEATURE_INSMOD_LOAD_MAP_FULL
bool "Symbols in load map"
default y
depends on FEATURE_INSMOD_LOAD_MAP
help
Without this option, -m will only output section
load map. With this option, -m will also output
symbols load map.
config RMMOD
bool "rmmod"
default n
help
rmmod is used to unload specified modules from the kernel.
config LSMOD
bool "lsmod"
default n
help
lsmod is used to display a list of loaded modules.
config FEATURE_LSMOD_PRETTY_2_6_OUTPUT
bool "lsmod pretty output for 2.6.x Linux kernels "
default n
depends on LSMOD
help
This option makes output format of lsmod adjusted to
the format of module-init-tools for Linux kernel 2.6.
config MODPROBE
bool "modprobe"
default n
help
Handle the loading of modules, and their dependencies on a high
level.
Note that in the state, modprobe does not understand multiple
module options from the configuration file. See option below.
config FEATURE_MODPROBE_MULTIPLE_OPTIONS
bool
prompt "Multiple options parsing" if NITPICK
default y
depends on MODPROBE
help
Allow modprobe to understand more than one option to pass to
modules.
This is a WIP, while waiting for a common argument parsing
common amongst all BB applets (shell, modprobe, etc...) and
adds around 600 bytes on x86, 700 bytes on ARM. The code is
biggish and uggly, but just works.
Saying Y here is not a bad idea if you're not that short
on storage capacity.
config FEATURE_MODPROBE_FANCY_ALIAS
bool
prompt "Fancy alias parsing" if NITPICK
default y
depends on MODPROBE && FEATURE_2_6_MODULES
help
Say 'y' here to enable parsing of aliases with underscore/dash
mismatch between module name and file name, along with bus-specific
aliases (such as pci:... or usb:... aliases).
comment "Options common to multiple modutils"
depends on INSMOD || RMMOD || MODPROBE || LSMOD
config FEATURE_CHECK_TAINTED_MODULE
# Simulate indentation
bool "Support tainted module checking with new kernels"
default y
depends on INSMOD || LSMOD
help
Support checking for tainted modules. These are usually binary
only modules that will make the linux-kernel list ignore your
support request.
This option is required to support GPLONLY modules.
config FEATURE_2_4_MODULES
# Simulate indentation
bool "Support version 2.2.x to 2.4.x Linux kernels"
default y
depends on INSMOD || RMMOD || MODPROBE
help
Support module loading for 2.2.x and 2.4.x Linux kernels.
config FEATURE_2_6_MODULES
# Simulate indentation
bool "Support version 2.6.x Linux kernels"
default y
depends on INSMOD || RMMOD || MODPROBE
help
Support module loading for newer 2.6.x Linux kernels.
config FEATURE_QUERY_MODULE_INTERFACE
bool
default y
depends on FEATURE_2_4_MODULES && !FEATURE_2_6_MODULES
