KERNEL-WEDGE-PREPROCESS(1)

NAME
kernel-wedge-preprocess - process a module list file

SYNOPSIS
kernel-wedge preprocess module-list module-dir

DESCRIPTION
Preprocesses the module-list, performing list includes and module excludes, removing blank lines and comments, and expanding wildcards. Emits a list of filenames to stdout.

Return 1 if a required module or directory is missing, unless $KW_CHECK_NONFATAL is non-empty.

The supported wildcards are:

? | Match a single character within a path component
* | Match any number of characters within a path component
** | Match any number of characters including multiple path components

On Linux, '-' and '_' also match each other since the kernel and kmod treat them as equivalent in module names.
