The SMBios Kernel Module provides access to the management information of SMBios structures in both human readable and binary form via the /proc file system. Platforms: *nix

April kernel module manager contains three little programs: 1. Kernel module manager: You can use this to browse all the modules you have compiled for the running kernel, load and unload modules with arguments, and configure which modules to load at startup. 2. AnswerTheCall: This is a CPU... Platforms: *nix

rshaper is a Linux kernel module that limits the incoming bandwidth for packets aimed at different hosts. While the former issue can be addressed with the conventional shaper driver, the latter cant be easily addressed by the standard shaper. As a matter of facts, I have not been able to use...

CDemu is a kernel module for Linux. It is designed to simulate a CD drive + CD with just simple cue/bin files, which are pretty common in the Windows world. You can use it to watch an SVCD or mount the data track of an bin/cue. However, for watching an SVCD, we would recommend MPlayer which can... Platforms: *nix

DKMS comes from Dynamic Kernel Module Support and is a framework where device driver source can reside outside the kernel source tree so that it is very easy to rebuild modules as you upgrade kernels. This allows Linux vendors to provide driver drops without having to wait for new kernel... Platforms: *nix

Laptop-Hotswap kernel module enables hot-swapping for disk drives with full DMA support under Linux. It requires kernel 2.6.15+ and ACPI. I think it ought to work on just about any laptop, although Im not as familiar with ACPI as Id like to be. It works fine on my T22. There could be issues... Platforms: *nix

NoArp is a Linux kernel module that filters and drops unwanted ARP requests. It is useful when you need to add an alias to the loopback interface to use a load balancer. Installation: The `configure shell script attempts to guess correct values for various system-dependent variables used... Platforms: *nix

MMUSBAUDIO (formerly known as USBUA100) is a Linux kernel module device driver for the Roland / Edirol desktop audio devices. It works with next devices: UA-1EX UM-1 UA-5 UA-100 SC-8850 The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) supports many USB audio devices. It is provided with... Platforms: *nix

Sealing Wafter is an OpenBSD kernel module that detects nmap scans and prevents proper identification of open TCP ports. Sealing Wafter module also gives protection against dsniff tcpkill RST packets by dropping them. More testing is needed to prevent breakage of network applications. Whats... Platforms: *nix

Kvblade project is a kernel module implementing the target side of the AoE protocol. Users can command the module through sysfs to export block devices on specified network interfaces. The loopback device should be used as an intermediary for exporting regular files with kvblade.. Platforms: *nix

Sysprof is a sampling CPU profiler that uses a Linux kernel module to profile the entire system, not just a single application. Sysprof handles shared libraries and applications do not need to be recompiled. In fact they dont even have to be restarted. Just insert the kernel module and start... Platforms: *nix

packet-cd produces a Linux kernel module that provides packet writing support for CD-R/W drives, enabling ordinary read-write mount of CD-ROM drives capable of supporting packet/incremental recording. Platforms: *nix

Linux Network Load Balancing is an open-source project (kernel module + userland app.) aimed to realize decentered network load balancing clusters between Linux boxes. In a few words: a common IP shared between all nodes (on a virtual interface). All you have to do is to bind on the virtual... Platforms: *nix

u24mixer-module is a simple kernel module that provides ALSA mixer controls for the ESI U24 USB sound card. Whats New in This Release: - All of the mixer controls found in the ESI U24 Windows control panel were implemented.. Platforms: *nix

FTP File System is a Linux kernel module, enhancing the VFS with FTP volume mounting capabilities. That is, you can "mount" FTP shared directories in your very personal file system and take advantage of local files ops. Platforms: *nix

XVMSocket is a Linux Kernel Module that provides a new socket family for high throughput (40-70 times better than TCP/IP sockets) between applications running on different guest Linux VMs on the same Xen system. No changes to Xen or Linux required. Platforms: *nix

kbfd is BFD(Bidirectional Forwarding Detection) implementation in Linux Kernel Module. This could be control kbfd and utilize for ospfd/ospf6d/bgpd to use bfd fast failure detection. Platforms: *nix

LinCAN is a Linux kernel module that implements a CAN driver capable of working with multiple cards, even with different chips and IO methods. Each communication object can be accessed from multiple applications concurrently. It supports RT-Linux, 2.2, 2.4, and 2.6 with fully implemented select,... Platforms: *nix

Shfs is a simple and easy to use Linux kernel module which allows you to mount remote filesystems using a plain shell (ssh) connection. When using shfs, you can access all remote files just like the local ones, only the access is governed through the transport security of ssh.. Platforms: *nix

MDFS is a simple Distributed File System for Linux and Windows implemented in C++. Simple because it is not a kernel module, just an application running in the background. Platforms: *nix
