Android and kernel modules

Question

So - Android is built on top of a Linux-free system. Most handy utilities are missing, but there are all the basics.

I can name insmod and rmmod. No problems.

But where are the kernel modules and firmware files? I can not find. there are no / lib / modules in the standard distribution.

Problem: I need modules. Of course, you do not want to compile support for every USB device in the world into a linux kernel. Where should I put them?

Answer 1

Modules should be stored in /system/lib/modules , or at least that seems to be the general consensus in most ROMs.
