Re: List of all available kernel modules per version

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

 



The first thing I am interested in a complete list of all kernel modules of the x86 plattform for any kernel version. The problem I want to solve is a generalized way to find out the kernel versions in which modules first were supported.

One exmaple is the `nvme_tcp` module. Trough testing on machines running different kernels and stackoverflow articles I figured out that it might have been supported since kernel version 5.x. I would like to have a way to verfiy such kind of
information for any given module.

Hi everyone,

If got more of a general question: Is there a way to list all the standard
kernel modules that are included in a specific kernel version?
What do you mean by "standard" exactly?

What architecture?  What types of hardware do you feel are "standard"?

And I don't meant the currently running modules I could get via lsmod but I
mean all the modules that are supported by a specific kernel version.
Or can I even derive these myself from the source tree, without even
compiling the kernel (that would be very helpful)?
A random list of module names probably does not help much (hint, what
hardware does the module that is called "option.ko" support?")

What problem are you trying to solve here?

thanks,
