| 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. |
