+kmod 18
+=======
+
+- Bug fixes:
+	- Fix leaks in error paths
+	- Fix use-after-free in hash implementation causing a wrong index to be
+	  generated by depmod with out-of-tree modules
+
+- New features:
+	- Calling depmod with modules creating a dependency loop will now make
+	  depmod return an error and not update the indexes. This is to protect
+	  the current index not being overridden by another index that may cause
+	  a boot failure, depending on the buggy module. It's a necessary
+	  change in behavior regarding previous kmod releases and
+	  module-init-tools. The error message was also improved to output
+	  the modules that caused the dependency cycle.
+
+- Improvements to testsuite:
+	- Fix and improve expected-fail test
+	- Add tests for hashmap implementation
+
