6 Kernel modules are small pieces of compiled code which can
10 many parts of the kernel can be built as modules (by

33 modules. You don't need these options on production systems.
43 For example, size of all modules, average size, text size, a list
44 of failed modules and the size for each of those. For failed
45 modules we keep track of modules which failed due to either the

53 You might want to do this because failed modules tend to use
63 bool "Debug duplicate modules with auto-loading"
65 Module autoloading allows in-kernel code to request modules through
71 duplicate modules. The finit_module() system call can consume in the

193 Check modules for valid signatures upon load: the signature
203 another LSM - otherwise unsigned modules will be loadable regardless
212 bool "Require modules to be validly signed"
215 Reject unsigned modules or signed modules for which we don't have a
216 key. Without this, such modules will simply taint the kernel.
219 bool "Automatically sign all modules"
223 Sign all modules during make modules_install. Without this option,
224 modules must be signed manually, using the scripts/sign-file tool.

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

297 Do not compress modules. The installed modules are suffixed

315 Compress modules with ZSTD. The installed modules are suffixed
328 Support for decompressing kernel modules by the kernel itself
335 bool "Allow loading of modules with missing namespace imports"
356 removes the kernel's ability to request modules (but
357 userspace can still load modules explicitly).
363 The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for
364 other modules to use via EXPORT_SYMBOL() and variants. Depending
365 on the set of modules being selected in your kernel configuration,
