| bf89f76e LDM |

| 4 | * config: configs that do not need to be matched by fnmatch() could be using a | |
| 5 | vector instead of a list. This way we could search in it by calling | |
| 6 | bsearch(). | |

| c3325cfc LDM |
8 | * index: drop the "open(), seek(), read()" implementation and use another one |
| 9 | with mmap(). When lookup() is called and the file is not mmaped, mmap it. | |
| 10 | ||
| c3d0a5f2 | 11 | * create test-mock library to be LD_PRELOAD'ed before running the binaries |
| 7fe602b6 | 12 | so we're able to create unit tests |
| c3d0a5f2 GSB |
13 | |
| 14 | * provide ELF manipulation to implement modinfo | |
| 15 | ||
| d68ea2ae LDM |
16 | * Add functions to dump configuration |
| 17 | ||
| 18 | * Add functions list all modules known by modules.dep | |
| 19 | ||
| d68ea2ae | 20 | * provide 1:1 compatibility with module-init-tools's modprobe |
| c3d0a5f2 | 21 | - show modversions (needs elf manipulation) |
| d68ea2ae | 22 | - dump configuration |
| c4b4ac9e LDM |
23 | - use softdep |
| 24 | - install and remove commands may exist when there's no module with that | |
| 25 | name. Properly handle this case | |

| 41 | * list of currently loaded modules | |
| 42 | ||
| 43 | * module's size should be available under /sys | |
| d68ea2ae | 44 | |
| 5e690c5c | 45 | * kill /proc/modules ? |
