NAME
modules.dep, modules.dep.bin- Module dependency information
SYNOPSIS
/lib/modules/modules.dep
/lib/modules/modules.dep.bin
DESCRIPTION
modules.dep.bin is a binary file generated by depmod listing the
dependencies for every module in the directories under
/lib/modules/version. It is used by kmod tools such as modprobe and
libkmod.
Its text counterpart is located in the same directory with the name
modules.dep. The text version is maintained only for ease of reading by humans
and is in no way used by any kmod tool.
These files are not intended for editing or use by any additional utilities as
their format is subject to change in the future. You should use the modinfo(8)
command to obtain information about modules in a future proof and compatible
fashion rather than touching these files.
