lsmod

---

lsmod (list modules) is used to show the status of modules that are loaded in the kernel. lsmod works by listing the /proc/modules but in a more readable way.

Usage

lsmod [options]
-s, --syslog      print to syslog, not stderr
-v, --verbose     enables more messages
-V, --version     show the version
-h, --help        show help

The output is laid out with:

• Module name
• Size in ram
• How many other modules are using that module
• Names of the modules that are using that module
