The first thing I am interested in a complete list of all kernel modules of the x86 plattform for any kernel version.
Which x86 platform? There are many different ones.
The problem I want to solve is a generalized way to find out the kernel versions in which modules first were supported.
But how are you mapping a module "name" to what it does? Why does that matter?
One exmaple is the `nvme_tcp` module. Trough testing on machines running different kernels and stackoverflow articles I figured out that it might have been supported since kernel version 5.x. I would like to have a way to verfiy such kind of information for any given module.
Do a 'make allmodconfig' build for every major release and sort the output. Should be pretty easy to script if you really need this. Good luck! greg k-h
