!!NAME modules.dep --- List of module dependencies !!DESCRIPTION The modules.dep as generated by module-init-tools __depmod__, lists the dependencies for every module in the directories under __/lib/modules/__''version'', where __modules.dep__ is. Blank lines, and lines starting with a '#' (ignoring spaces) are ignored. Other lines are of the form "filename: [[filename]*", listing the complete dependencies for the first filename in descending order. For example, if __/lib/modules/2.5.53/kernel/a.ko__ depended on __b.ko__ and __c.ko__ in the same directory, and __c.ko__ depended on __b.ko__ as well, the file might look like: # This is a comment. /lib/modules/2.5.53/kernel/a.ko: /lib/modules/2.5.53/kernel/c.ko /lib/modules/2.5.53/kernel/b.ko /lib/modules/2.5.53/kernel/b.ko: /lib/modules/2.5.53/kernel/c.ko: /lib/modules/2.5.53/kernel/b.ko This file is used by modprobe to know the order to load modules (they are loaded right to left, and removed left to right). !!COPYRIGHT This manual page Copyright 2002, Rusty Russell, IBM Corporation. !!SEE ALSO modprobe(8)
