DESCRIPTION 
 The  modstat  system call writes the info for the kernel module referred to by  modid  into  stat .  
 
  version   This field is set to the size of the structure mentioned above by the code calling  modstat , and not  modstat  itself.   name   The name of the module referred to by  modid .   refs   The number of modules referenced by  modid .   id   The id of the module specified in  modid .   data   Module specific data.  
  
RETURN VALUES 
   
ERRORS 
 The information for the module referred to by  modid  is filled into the structure pointed to by  stat  unless:   [ENOENT ]     The module was not found (probably not loaded).  [EINVAL ]     The version specified in the  version  field of stat is not the proper version. You would need to rebuild world, the kernel, or your application, if this error occurs, given that you did properly fill in the  version  field.  [EFAULT ]     There was a problem copying one, some, or all of the fields into  stat  in the copyout (9) function.
