# kernel_module
|
|
|
|
Use the `kernel_module` InSpec audit resource to test kernel modules on Linux platforms. These parameters are located under `/lib/modules`. Any submodule may be tested using this resource.
|
|
|
|
## Syntax
|
|
|
|
A `kernel_module` resource block declares a module name, and then tests if that module is a loadable kernel module:
|
|
|
|
describe kernel_module('module_name') do
|
|
it { should be_loaded }
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
|
|
* `'module_name'` must specify a kernel module, such as `'bridge'`
|
|
* `{ should be_loaded }` tests if the module is a loadable kernel module
|
|
|
|
## Matchers
|
|
|
|
This InSpec audit resource has the following matchers:
|
|
|
|
### be
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_be" %>
|
|
|
|
### be_loaded
|
|
|
|
The `be_loaded` matcher tests if the module is a loadable kernel module:
|
|
|
|
it { should be_loaded }
|
|
|
|
### cmp
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_cmp" %>
|
|
|
|
### eq
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_eq" %>
|
|
|
|
### include
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_include" %>
|
|
|
|
### match
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_match" %>
|
|
|
|
## Examples

it { should be_loaded }
|

end
