44 For example, size of all modules, average size, text size, a list
45 of failed modules and the size for each of those. For failed
46 modules we keep track of modules which failed due to either the

54 You might want to do this because failed modules tend to use
64 bool "Debug duplicate modules with auto-loading"
66 Module autoloading allows in-kernel code to request modules through
72 duplicate modules. The finit_module() system call can consume in the

269 bool "Require modules to be validly signed"
272 Reject unsigned modules or signed modules for which we don't have a
273 key. Without this, such modules will simply taint the kernel.
276 bool "Automatically sign all modules"
280 Sign all modules during make modules_install. Without this option,
281 modules must be signed manually, using the scripts/sign-file tool.

404 bool "Allow loading of modules with missing namespace imports"
425 removes the kernel's ability to request modules (but
426 userspace can still load modules explicitly).
431 The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for
