#### Read-only Linux /proc/modules and /sys/module driver & parameter viewer

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.

## Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install Loaded Kernel Module Inspector

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://www.ubuntu.com/) or later, including [Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features) and [Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

For versions of Ubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include *snap* by default, *snap* can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for *snapd*.

Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
