Description
- systemd uses
- files from the above directories to configure
- kernel modules to load during boot in a static list.
- Each configuration file is named in the style of
- /etc/modules-load.d/<program>.conf. Note
- that it is usually a better idea to use the automatic
- module loading by PCI ID, by DMI ID or similar
- triggers configured in the kernel modules themselves
- instead of relying on static configuration like
- this.
+ systemd-modules-load.service8
+ reads files from the above directories which contain
+ kernel modules to load during boot in a static list.
+ Each configuration file is named in the style of
+ /etc/modules-load.d/program.conf. Note
+ that it is usually a better idea to rely on the
+ automatic module loading by PCI IDs, USB IDs, DMI IDs
+ or similar triggers encoded in the kernel modules
+ themselves instead of static configuration like
+ this. In fact, most modern kernel modules are prepared
+ for automatic loading already.
- Configuration Format
-
- The configuration files should simply contain a
- list of kernel module names to load, separated by
- newlines. Empty lines and lines whose first
- non-whitespace character is # or ; are ignored.
-
- Each configuration file is named in the style of
- <program>.conf.
- Files in /etc/ override
- files with the same name in /usr/lib/.
- Files in /run override files with
- the same name in /etc/ and
- /usr/lib/. Packages should install their
- configuration files in /usr/lib/, files
- in /etc/ are reserved for the local
- administration, which possibly decides to override the
- configurations installed from packages. All files are sorted
- by filename in alphabetical order, regardless in which of the
- directories they reside, to ensure that a specific
- configuration file takes precedence over another file with
- an alphabetically later name.
