how can I find out the version number of a particular kernel module

#n880
That is, go to https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree
and delve down to where your module source is. Look for
"MODULE_VERSION"
Thanks, this works in *most* cases.
But some modules do not have it as literal, e.g.
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/block/drbd
- the running kernel, or the loaded modules
# modinfo uinput | grep '^version'
version: 0.3
Thanks, forgot this magic command;-)
