python-kmod
===========
Python bindings for kmod/libkmod
kmod is a set of tools to handle common tasks with Linux kernel modules like
insert, remove, list, check properties, resolve dependencies and aliases.
These tools are designed on top of libkmod, a library that is shipped with
kmod. It can be found at:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/kernel/kmod/kmod.git;a=summary
python-kmod is a Python wrapper module for libkmod, exposing common
module operations: listing installed modules, modprobe, and rmmod.
It is at:
https://github.com/agrover/python-kmod
Example (python invoked as root)
--------------------------------
::
>>> import kmod
>>> km = kmod.Kmod()
>>> [(m.name, m.size) for m in km.loaded()]
[(u'nfs', 407706),
(u'nfs_acl', 12741)
...
(u'virtio_blk', 17549)]
>>> km.modprobe("btrfs")
>>> km.rmmod("btrfs")
Building
--------
Ensure Python, Cython, and the kmod headers are installed and run::
$ python setup.py build
