I am running CentOS 6.5 and I want to remove auto loading 8021q and garp modules, but there are no configure files in /etc/modprobe.d define bot modules.
I even added both module names to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, both of them are still loaded after the reboot. How can I disable both modules from boot?
Thank you.

Reason: Add CODE and ICODE tags.
I'm using SuSE 9.2 Pro and trying to use a program call BestCrypt. I get it installed and type bctool and it says "Kernel modules not loaded". If you need to know anymore about it you can find it at http://www.jetico.com/linux/bcrypt-help/index.htm

Hi,all:
I run my program which consists of one kernel module and one user mode process on a dual core server. The problem here is the kernel module consumes 100% of one core while the user mode process only consumes 10% of the other core, is there any solution that I can assign some computing... (1 Reply)

I am aware of debugging linux applications using gdb and ddd.
Now I have written a simple kernel module having init_module, exit _module and some functions for tasklets and workqueues.
I want to debug these kernel modules like I used to debug applications setting breakpoints etc.

Hey everyone. I have a question, doing an lsmod gives me a list of all the loaded modules for my system. But how did they know to load? my /etc/modules files is empty, so how did these modules know to load themselves on boot time? If I were to take this hard drive to another computer with a...

I'm a little embarrassed after all these years I've never really successfully compiled my own kernel. I used this guide to make the following files:

modinfo
modinfo(8) System Manager's Manual modinfo(8)NAME
modinfo -- program to show information about a Linux Kernel module
SYNOPSIS
modinfo [-0] [-F field] [-k kernel] [modulename|filename ...]
modinfo -V
modinfo -h
DESCRIPTION
modinfo extracts information from the Linux Kernel modules given on the command line. If the module name is not a filename, then the
/lib/modules/version directory is searched, as is also done by modprobe(8) when loading kernel modules.
modinfo by default lists each attribute of the module in form fieldname : value, for easy reading. The filename is listed the same way
(although it's not really an attribute).
This version of modinfo can understand modules of any Linux Kernel architecture.
OPTIONS -V --version
Print the modinfo version.
-F --field
Only print this field value, one per line. This is most useful for scripts. Field names are case-insenitive. Common fields
(which may not be in every module) include author, description, license, parm, depends, and alias. There are often multiple
parm, alias and depends fields. The special field filename lists the filename of the module.
-k kernel Provide information about a kernel other than the running one. This is particularly useful for distributions needing to extract
information from a newly installed (but not yet running) set of kernel modules. For example, you wish to find which firmware
files are needed by various modules in a new kernel for which you must make an initrd/initramfs image prior to booting.
-0 --null Use the ASCII zero character to separate field values, instead of a new line. This is useful for scripts, since a new line can
theoretically appear inside a field.
-a -d -l -p -n
These are shortcuts for author, description, license. parm and filename respectively, to ease the transition from the old modu-
tils modinfo.
