KSYMS(8)               Linux Module Support              KSYMS(8)



NAME
       ksyms - display exported kernel symbols.

SYNOPSIS
       ksyms [-ahm]

DESCRIPTION
       Ksyms  shows  information  about  exported kernel symbols.
       The format is address, name, and defining module.

   OPTIONS
       -a, --all
              Display all symbols.  By default, symbols from  the
              kernel proper are suppressed.

       -h, --noheader
              Suppress the column header.

       -H, --help
              Display a summary of options and exit.

       -m, --info
              Display module information.  Includes each module's
              kernel load address and size in the listing.

       -V, --version
              Display the version of ksyms.

SEE ALSO
       insmod(8), modprobe(8), depmod(8), rmmod(8), lsmod(8).

BUGS
       ksyms  [  -V  |  --version  ]  should  exit   immediately.
       Instead,  it prints the version information and behaves as
       if no options were given.

       Although the fix for this bug is trivial, it  changes  the
       behaviour  of modutils.  Given the large number of distri-
       butions and scripts that run modutils and expect the  cur-
       rent behaviour, any change of behaviour is unacceptable in
       2.4.  Don't bother sending patches for this bug,  it  will
       not be fixed in 2.4, it should be fixed in 2.5.

HISTORY
       The  ksyms  command  was  first  conceived by Bjorn Ekwall
       <bj0rn@blox.se>
       The '-m' option was inspired by David Hinds  <dhinds@alle-
       gro.stanford.edu>
       Updated for 2.1.17 by Richard Henderson <rth@tamu.edu>
