2003-06-20Fall back to looking in /lib/modules/modules.dep ifEric Andersen
/lib/modules/<kernel version>/modules.dep is missing
2003-06-20Patch from Andrew Dennison:Eric Andersen
I've had some issues with modprobe which I reported a few months ago. This is still an issue so I decided to sort it out. The attached diff includes the changes against the unstable cvs tree that work for me. Changes are: mod_process() will report success if the module at the head of the list loads successfully. It will also report success if any module unloads successfully. The net result being that modprobe will succeed in the cases outlined below. I've also added error reporting to modprobe -r. Previously it would silently fail (but report success) if the module could not be unloaded. Andrew

2002-07-29Fixed a bug that I had introduced with the new "options" handling.Robert Griebl
2002-07-26modprobe now also uses "options" from /etc/modules.confRobert Griebl
2002-07-02David Frascone <dave@frascone.com> noticed two problems. First, modprobe wasEric Andersen
trying to call 'insmod -q', which wasn't supported. Secondly, when modprobe was fed blank lines from modules.dep, we ended up calling xstrndup(ptr, -1), which with suitably bad results. David provided a patch to catch the blank lines, and I have added insmod -q support. So modprobe should work again. -Erik
