Hi All,

device in linux?

For Example,

I have a device, I inserted it and it is working fine after I inserted,
but I don't know what are all the modules are inserted for that particular
device. So how can I check that one?

The book, Linux Kernel in a Nutshell, free online, has a chapter that
helps you figure this type of thing out, with scripts you can run.  Try
looking at that, it's not a "simple" question to determine at times.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

You can :

To see which drivers it's using
$ ls -l ls -l /sys/class/net/eth0/device/driver
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Dec  9 08:28 /sys/class/net/eth0/device/driver ->
../../../bus/pci/drivers/e1000e

To see what else modules are using this module
$ ls -l /sys/module/e1000e/holders/
Total 0

Thanks

It looks like `lspci -k` is what you want.

Which only works for PCI cards, not for USB, I2C,  SPI, or other bus
devices that you may have...
