I'm a little confused as to why this should live in kmod if the output
is only useful to systemd. Rather, I would have suspected that this
would be part of src/core/kmod-setup.c in systemd. modules.devname is
easily parseable and requires no knowledge of what kmod does internally.
In fact, your code initializes a kmod context but then never uses it for
anything.

I've left some comments for you regardless of where this ends up
living...

The code says otherwise -- it reads from /lib/modules/...

As mentioned above, this is never actually used, but it seems the only
thing it could be potentially used for is logging, rather than writing
directly to a stream.

Full path here instead of just a trailing fragment?

I disagree that this should be an error or a failure.

You appear to have some inconsistent whitespace above here in the
fprintf and fputs calls. There's more below which I haven't pointed out.

You declare these as int (signed), but then treat them as unsigned (%u)
in sscanf and fprintf.

This whole section is unnecessarily verbose. This should be a well
formed file where non-comment data matches the format string "%ms %ms
%c%u:%u".  You can simply do your validation on that (i.e. sscanf
returns exactly 5). Note that %ms will allocate memory for the data, so
you need to free it after printing it below. Alternatively, just use
adequately sized stack allocated char[] with %s.

I think this is worth logging about given that depmod currently never
writes anything but 'b' or 'c' here. I suspect this won't be changing
any time soon...
