how to examine the module config settings of the running kernel?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



  is there a simple way to query the running kernel regarding its
loadable module settings?  such as, whether it allows different
version modules to be loaded, or forced unloading, etc?

  i'm aware that this information is available from the kernel's
configuration file, and that's fine if you have access to that file.
but what if you don't?  what if /proc/config.gz support hasn't been
configured in?  and there's no config file lying around?

  normally, i expect to find kernel attributes buried under /proc
somewhere.  is the module info down there as well?
