Details

kmod is a program and package to manage Kernel-Modules.

It is a multi-call binary like busybox and is symlinked by:

lsmod       # show loaded modules
modinfo     # show module info

rmmod       # unload modules
insmod      # load modules
modprobe    # load/unload modules and dependencies

depmod      # create dependency databases

In FRITZ!OS it contains a static linked subset of libkmod.so, see the Source below.
The library is only used by udevd and udevadm.

See also the kmod(8) man page and the Kmod-Bin article.

Build-Options

kmod could be compiled with various options, which could be queried for - fw 7.39:

root@fritz0:/var/mod/root# kmod -V

kmod version 25
-XZ -ZLIB -EXPERIMENTAL

This shows that 3 ./configure options were activated at compile time:

--with-xz               handle Xz-compressed modules [default=disabled]
--with-zlib             handle gzipped modules [default=disabled]
--enable-experimental   enable experimental tools and features. Do not
                        enable it unless you know what you are doing.
                        [default=disabled]

Full options of kmod 25:

me@home:~/kmod$ ./configure --help

'configure' configures kmod 25 to adapt to many kinds of systems.

Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...

To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
VAR=VALUE.  See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.

Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.

Configuration:
  -h, --help              display this help and exit
      --help=short        display options specific to this package
      --help=recursive    display the short help of all the included packages
  -V, --version           display version information and exit
  -q, --quiet, --silent   do not print `checking ...' messages
      --cache-file=FILE   cache test results in FILE [disabled]
  -C, --config-cache      alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'
  -n, --no-create         do not create output files
      --srcdir=DIR        find the sources in DIR [configure dir or `..']

Installation directories:
  --prefix=PREFIX         install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
                          [/usr]
  --exec-prefix=EPREFIX   install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
                          [PREFIX]

By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/usr/bin', `/usr/lib' etc.  You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/usr' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.

For better control, use the options below.

Fine tuning of the installation directories:
  --bindir=DIR            user executables [EPREFIX/bin]

Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to help
it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations.

GPL-Browser

Daily updated index of all kmod code findings on the GPL-Browser. Last update: 2024-04-20 04:15 GMT.
The Browse column points to the Path containing the respective source code on the gpl.boxmatrix.info service.
The SoC column lists the Chip-Codenames, the Model column lists the nicks of the Box-Models.
The Diff column links the comparison of the AVM Kernel to the pristine original from Kernel.org.
The Download column links the full tarball the respective directory content is extracted from.
The presence of the source does not mean it fits the respective model and architecture. See the Model-Matrix where it's used.

Source

The names of source files compiled into an executable often help to understand function blocks (and show gaps in the docs).
fw 7.39 source files:

$ strings /usr/bin/kmod | grep -e '\.c$' -e '\.cpp$'

libkmod/libkmod.c

libkmod/libkmod-index.c
libkmod/libkmod-module.c
shared/array.c
shared/strbuf.c
tools/depmod.c

This list is icomplete. All tools are compiled in, so surely further files are missing too.
