MODINFO(8) | modinfo | MODINFO(8) |
NAME¶
modinfo - Show information about a Linux Kernel module
SYNOPSIS¶
modinfo [-0] [-F field] [-k kernel] [modulename|filename...]
modinfo -V
modinfo -h
DESCRIPTION¶
modinfo extracts information from the Linux Kernel modules given on the command line. If the module name is not a filename, then the /lib/modules/version directory is searched, as is also done by modprobe(8) when loading kernel modules.
modinfo by default lists each attribute of the module in form fieldname : value, for easy reading. The filename is listed the same way (although it's not really an attribute).
This version of modinfo can understand modules of any Linux Kernel architecture.
