I think the usefulness comes from developers wants to see what are the modules are using by the running kernel in formatted way. This is very simple way to enlist all the modules with descriptions of it.So , they can easily parse it with other scripts. I believe you have already copy and paste the single line on your terminal to see the output it produces, if not, I have already sent a mail which includes the out of it. If and only if, no other tool or mechanism(which might have skips my eyes and knowledge) to find and display information this way. Kindly, share me the other way , you can achieve that. This is a generic script,and expecting stuff in common place, so everybody can use it.No, special requirement is needed. Here is little output,if you missed my other mail with it... filename:/lib/modules/5.4.1-arch1-1ArchLinux-5.4.1/kernel/drivers/usb/host/xhci-pci.ko.xz description: xHCI PCI Host Controller Driver depends: xhci-hcd These output can be parse by other scripts too(cliche...sorry) ..

IMHO, this is a good thing to have. I can even imagine it shipped by distros, for better bug reports. OTOH, if it's about the currently running kernel and loaded modules, why not putting this into /proc or /sys ? --mtx -- Dringender Hinweis: aufgrund existenzieller Bedrohung durch "Emotet" sollten Sie *niemals* MS-Office-Dokumente via E-Mail annehmen/öffenen, selbst wenn diese von vermeintlich vertrauenswürdigen Absendern zu stammen scheinen.

The reason being not putting in the /proc or /sys is, it is not dynamically generated stuff. This is small script which do a specific task ,out of the information available in /proc or /sys. And essentially resides in the scripts directory for easy finding and using. :) ~Bhaskar > > >--mtx > >-- >Dringender Hinweis: aufgrund existenzieller Bedrohung durch "Emotet" >sollten Sie *niemals* MS-Office-Dokumente via E-Mail annehmen/öffenen, >selbst wenn diese von vermeintlich vertrauenswürdigen Absendern zu >stammen scheinen.

Moreover,this is sort and precise and can be parsed by other scripts. The whole point behind this is to give the developers a convenient point without going through all the rigorous details.

And I was not denying the verbosity of lsmod and modinfo , as I was pointing out to someone else. About the V2, this was a mistake , I know once I saw it alas! after sending it you. So, my apology. One thing get it straight , I am NOT trying to flooding with some airy fairy script , I know what it takes to maintain that bloody thing. Your time is precious like mine, never try to gobbles it by sending garbage. I was thinking make it easy for others, not sure why you think it's wired. Again , thanks for the heads up...above statements are STRICTLY NOT in my defence not to cover the mistake. > Best Regards > Masahiro Yamada > >References > > 1. mailto:unixbhaskar@gmail.com > 2. mailto:unixbhaskar@gmail.com [-- Attachment #2: signature.asc --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 488 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
