This + module name will always show up if the module is loaded as a + dynamic module. If it is built directly into the kernel, it + will only show up if it has a version or at least one + parameter. + + Note: The conditions of creation in the built-in case are not + by design and may be removed in the future. + + /sys/module/MODULENAME/parameters + This directory contains individual files that are each + individual parameters of the module that are able to be + changed at runtime. See the individual module + documentation as to the contents of these parameters and + what they accomplish. + + Note: The individual parameter names and values are not + considered stable, only the fact that they will be + placed in this location within sysfs. See the + individual driver documentation for details as to the + stability of the different parameters. + + /sys/module/MODULENAME/refcnt + If the module is able to be unloaded from the kernel, this file + will contain the current reference count of the module. + + Note: If the module is built into the kernel, or if the + CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD kernel configuration value is not enabled, + this file will not be present. -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
