Loaded Kernel Module Inspector is a read-only desktop Linux kernel module,
built-in subsystem, reverse dependency holder, and parameter viewer.
An independent Linux alternative inspired by loaded driver inspection tools
such as DriverView, it reads /proc/modules, /sys/module, and /sys/bus driver
links strictly in read-only mode without loading, unloading, or modifying modules.
Key Features:
- Loadable & Built-in Module Inventory: Combines live /proc/modules resident
.ko modules with /sys/module/* built-in kernel subsystems, displaying memory
coresize, initsize, reference counts, initstate, srcversion, and taint flags.
- Reverse Dependency Holders Tree: Maps module holder links (/sys/module//holders)
and registered /sys/bus//drivers bindings into an interactive dependency tree.
- Live Sysfs Parameter Inspector: Enumerates readable /sys/module//parameters/
values and file permissions across active kernel subsystems and drivers.
- Memory Footprint Analytics & Export: Visualizes resident module memory allocation
and exports full module and parameter inventories to CSV and JSON.
