9 bool "Simplified modutils"
10 default n

12 Simplified modutils.
13
14 With this option modprobe does not require modules.dep file
15 and does not use /etc/modules.conf file.
16 It scans module files in /lib/modules/`uname -r` and
17 determines dependencies and module alias names on the fly.
18 This may make module loading slower, most notably
19 when one needs to load module by alias (this requires
20 scanning through module _bodies_).
21
22 At the first attempt to load a module by alias modprobe
23 will try to generate modules.dep.bb file in order to speed up
24 future loads by alias. Failure to do so (read-only /lib/modules,
25 etc) is not reported, and future modprobes will be slow too.
26
27 NB: modules.dep.bb file format is not compatible
28 with modules.dep file as created/used by standard module tools.
29
30 Additional module parameters can be stored in
31 /etc/modules/$module_name files.
32
33 Apart from modprobe, other utilities are also provided:
34 - insmod is an alias to modprobe
35 - rmmod is an alias to modprobe -r
36 - depmod generates modules.dep.bb
37
38 As of 2008-07, this code is experimental. It is 14kb smaller
39 than "non-small" modutils.

68 help
69 By default modules.dep contains all dependencies as listed by
70 the modules.
71 If you enable this option then we remove implied modules from
72 the dependencies.
73 This makes depmod somewhat bigger but generates a smaller
74 modules.dep file.

186 This is a WIP, while waiting for a common argument parsing
187 common amongst all BB applets (shell, modprobe, etc...) and
188 adds around 600 bytes on x86, 700 bytes on ARM. The code is

210 Say 'y' here to enable support for the 'blacklist' command in

212 blacklisted modules. This is useful if you want to prevent your
213 hardware autodetection scripts to load modules like evdev, frame
214 buffer drivers etc.
