8.48. Kmod-30

8.48.1. Installation of Kmod

Prepare Kmod for compilation:

./configure --prefix=/usr          \
            --sysconfdir=/etc      \
            --with-openssl         \
            --with-xz              \
            --with-zstd            \
            --with-zlib

Compile the package:

make

The test suite of this package requires raw kernel headers (not the “sanitized” kernel headers installed earlier), which are beyond the scope of LFS.

Install the package and create symlinks for compatibility with Module-Init-Tools (the package that previously handled Linux kernel modules):

make install

for target in depmod insmod modinfo modprobe rmmod; do
  ln -sfv ../bin/kmod /usr/sbin/$target
done

ln -sfv kmod /usr/bin/lsmod

8.48.2. Installation of Kmod - 32bit

Clean previous build but keep man pages as they cannot be recreated since xsltproc isn't installed yet:

sed -e "s/^CLEANFILES =.*/CLEANFILES =/" -i man/Makefile
make clean

Prepare Kmod for compilation:

CC="gcc -m32" ./configure \
    --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu      \
    --prefix=/usr                 \
    --libdir=/usr/lib32           \
    --sysconfdir=/etc             \
    --with-openssl                \
    --with-xz                     \
    --with-zstd                   \
    --with-zlib                   \
    --with-rootlibdir=/usr/lib32

Compile the package:

make

Install the package:

make DESTDIR=$PWD/DESTDIR install
cp -Rv DESTDIR/usr/lib32/* /usr/lib32
rm -rf DESTDIR

8.48.3. Installation of Kmod - x32bit

Clean previous build but keep man pages as they cannot be recreated since xsltproc isn't installed yet:

sed -e "s/^CLEANFILES =.*/CLEANFILES =/" -i man/Makefile
make clean

Prepare Kmod for compilation:

CC="gcc -mx32" ./configure \
    --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnux32 \
    --prefix=/usr                 \
    --libdir=/usr/libx32          \
    --sysconfdir=/etc             \
    --with-openssl                \
    --with-xz                     \
    --with-zstd                   \
    --with-zlib                   \
    --with-rootlibdir=/usr/libx32

Compile the package:

make

Install the package:

make DESTDIR=$PWD/DESTDIR install
cp -Rv DESTDIR/usr/libx32/* /usr/libx32
rm -rf DESTDIR
