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

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

181 bool "Source checksum for all modules"
189 will be created for all modules. If unsure, say N.
195 Check modules for valid signatures upon load: the signature
205 another LSM - otherwise unsigned modules will be loadable regardless
214 bool "Require modules to be validly signed"
217 Reject unsigned modules or signed modules for which we don't have a
218 key. Without this, such modules will simply taint the kernel.
221 bool "Automatically sign all modules"
225 Sign all modules during make modules_install. Without this option,
226 modules must be signed manually, using the scripts/sign-file tool.

286 This is fully compatible with signed modules.

341 Support for decompressing kernel modules by the kernel itself
348 bool "Allow loading of modules with missing namespace imports"
369 removes the kernel's ability to request modules (but
370 userspace can still load modules explicitly).
375 The kernel and some modules make many symbols available for
376 other modules to use via EXPORT_SYMBOL() and variants. Depending
