Linux/EVMK2H: How can i determine drivers being loaded at boot up.

Part Number: EVMK2H

Tool/software: Linux

Hi, 

I need to determine which of the drivers are currently being loaded at System boot up. And maybe the services currently running in my system, Moreover how can i stop the drivers i do not need to load at boot up? and stop the services from initializing? The main goal of this effort is to reduce the System boot up time.

Best regards

Sheraz

    Hi,

    You need to check arch/arm/configs/tisdk_k2hk-evm_defconfig file. Modules set with y, such as:
    CONFIG_KEYBOARD_GPIO=y
    CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBOARD=y
    CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=y
    CONFIG_I2C_CHARDEV=y

    Are loaded directly in the kernel image (zImage) and they are loaded upon device bootup. The ones set as m are built as modules and user needs to insmod them manually after device is booted.

    You can also see which modules are directly loaded with lsmod command.

    Best Regards,
