modules

help
|
|
Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can
|
|
be inserted in the running kernel, rather than being
|
|
permanently built into the kernel. You use the "modprobe"
|
|
tool to add (and sometimes remove) them. If you say Y here,
|
|
many parts of the kernel can be built as modules (by
|
|
answering M instead of Y where indicated): this is most
|
|
useful for infrequently used options which are not required
|
|
for booting. For more information, see the man pages for
|
|
modprobe, lsmod, modinfo, insmod and rmmod.
|
|
|
|
If you say Y here, you will need to run "make
|
|
modules_install" to put the modules under /lib/modules/
|
|
where modprobe can find them (you may need to be root to do
|
|
this).
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say Y.

help
|
|
Allow loading of modules without version information (ie. modprobe

|
--force). Forced module loading sets the 'F' (forced) taint flag and
|
|
is usually a really bad idea.

config MODULE_UNLOAD

bool "Module unloading"
|
|
help
|
|
Without this option you will not be able to unload any
|
|
modules (note that some modules may not be unloadable
|
|
anyway), which makes your kernel smaller, faster
|
|
and simpler. If unsure, say Y.

|
|
help
|
|
This option allows you to force a module to unload, even if the
|
|
kernel believes it is unsafe: the kernel will remove the module
|
|
without waiting for anyone to stop using it (using the -f option to
|
|
rmmod). This is mainly for kernel developers and desperate users.

module that tainted the kernel. In addition to displaying a

help
|

Usually, you have to use modules compiled with your kernel.
|
|
Saying Y here makes it sometimes possible to use modules
|
|
compiled for different kernels, by adding enough information
|
|
to the modules to (hopefully) spot any changes which would
|
|
make them incompatible with the kernel you are running. If

unsure, say N.

config MODULE_SRCVERSION_ALL

|
|
help
|
|
Modules which contain a MODULE_VERSION get an extra "srcversion"
|
|
field inserted into their modinfo section, which contains a
|
|
sum of the source files which made it. This helps maintainers
|
|
see exactly which source was used to build a module (since
|
|
others sometimes change the module source without updating
|
|
the version). With this option, such a "srcversion" field
|
|
will be created for all modules. If unsure, say N.

Check modules for valid signatures upon load: the signature

is simply appended to the module. For more information see
|

<file:Documentation/admin-guide/module-signing.rst>.
|
|
|
|
Note that this option adds the OpenSSL development packages as a
|
|
kernel build dependency so that the signing tool can use its crypto

|
library.
|
|
|
|
You should enable this option if you wish to use either
|
|
CONFIG_SECURITY_LOCKDOWN_LSM or lockdown functionality imposed via

|
another LSM - otherwise unsigned modules will be loadable regardless
|
|
of the lockdown policy.
|
|
|
|
!!!WARNING!!! If you enable this option, you MUST make sure that the
|
|
module DOES NOT get stripped after being signed. This includes the

debuginfo strip done by some packagers (such as rpmbuild) and

inclusion into an initramfs that wants the module size reduced.

This determines which sort of hashing algorithm will be used during

signature generation. This algorithm _must_ be built into the kernel

This option allows you to choose the algorithm which will be used to
|
|
compress modules when 'make modules_install' is run. (or, you can
|
|
choose to not compress modules at all.)
|
|
|
|
External modules will also be compressed in the same way during the
|
|
installation.
|
|
|
|
For modules inside an initrd or initramfs, it's more efficient to
|
|
compress the whole initrd or initramfs instead.
|
|
|
|
This is fully compatible with signed modules.
|
|
|
|
Please note that the tool used to load modules needs to support the
|
|
corresponding algorithm. module-init-tools MAY support gzip, and kmod
|
|
MAY support gzip, xz and zstd.
|
|

Your build system needs to provide the appropriate compression tool
|

to compress the modules.

help
|
|
Symbols exported with EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS*() are considered exported in

|
a namespace. A module that makes use of a symbol exported with such a
|
|
namespace is required to import the namespace via MODULE_IMPORT_NS().
|
|
There is no technical reason to enforce correct namespace imports,
|
|
but it creates consistency between symbols defining namespaces and
|
|
users importing namespaces they make use of. This option relaxes this
|
|
requirement and lifts the enforcement when loading a module.

When kernel code requests a module, it does so by calling
|
|
the "modprobe" userspace utility. This option allows you to
|
|
set the path where that binary is found. This can be changed
|
|
at runtime via the sysctl file
|
|
/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe. Setting this to the empty string
|
|
removes the kernel's ability to request modules (but
|
|
userspace can still load modules explicitly).

The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for

other modules to use via EXPORT_SYMBOL() and variants. Depending
|
|
on the set of modules being selected in your kernel configuration,
|
|
many of those exported symbols might never be used.
|
|
|
|
This option allows for unused exported symbols to be dropped from
|
|
the build. In turn, this provides the compiler more opportunities
|
|
(especially when using LTO) for optimizing the code and reducing
|
|
binary size. This might have some security advantages as well.
