- AFAICS tools packed with kernel generate but do not consume .pc files
while JSON and jq are commonly used througout the kernel ecosystem
- .pc files would be shipped with libkmod development package, not the
kmod tool in a binary distribution
Other than that JSON and .pc files are roughly quivalent in usability.
Thanks
