Hello, I have a question regarding kernel modules and the "used by" column which appears when running "lsmod". I had noticed that when runing "lsmod" we have a titled which is named "used by". Sometimes the number of the modules which use this module appear with their names; Sometimes, however, only the number of the modules which use this module appear without the names; for example: with ipv6: lsmod Module Size Used by ... ... ipv6 307272 23 but with jbd, we have: jbd 64817 1 ext3 and sometimes we have a large number of modules which use this module, but only few are specified. For example, sunrpc 168009 25 nfs,lockd,nfs_acl Any idea why is it so ? when does the name of the module appear and when does it not appear ?
