105 another LSM - otherwise unsigned modules will be loadable regardless
114 bool "Require modules to be validly signed"
117 Reject unsigned modules or signed modules for which we don't have a
118 key. Without this, such modules will simply taint the kernel.
121 bool "Automatically sign all modules"
125 Sign all modules during make modules_install. Without this option,
126 modules must be signed manually, using the scripts/sign-file tool.

176 compress modules when 'make modules_install' is run. (or, you can
177 choose to not compress modules at all.)
179 External modules will also be compressed in the same way during the
182 For modules inside an initrd or initramfs, it's more efficient to
185 This is fully compatible with signed modules.
187 Please note that the tool used to load modules needs to support the

199 Do not compress modules. The installed modules are suffixed

217 Compress modules with ZSTD. The installed modules are suffixed
229 Support for decompressing kernel modules by the kernel itself
236 bool "Allow loading of modules with missing namespace imports"
257 removes the kernel's ability to request modules (but
258 userspace can still load modules explicitly).
264 The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for
265 other modules to use via EXPORT_SYMBOL() and variants. Depending
266 on the set of modules being selected in your kernel configuration,
