I know that is somehat OT, but I was looking for trying to discover what does mean the size column of lsmod. Some people says is memory used by the module, but if I run strace lsmod I found that it takes a look to coresize files at /sys and read /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-3.9.2/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-module and it says "Module size in bytes" but if I see the filesize using ls don't match So what does really mean coresize?
Modules drop unused memory after initialization so their core resident size doesn't have to correspond to filesize.
