+	  Test the kernel's module loading mechanism: kmod. kmod implements
+	  support to load modules using the Linux kernel's usermode helper.
+	  This test provides a series of tests against kmod.
+
+	  Although technically you can either build test_kmod as a module or
+	  into the kernel we disallow building it into the kernel since
+	  it stress tests request_module() and this will very likely cause
+	  some issues by taking over precious threads available from other
+	  module load requests, ultimately this could be fatal.
+
+	  To run tests run:

+# This is a stress test script for kmod, the kernel module loader. It uses
+# test_kmod which exposes a series of knobs for the API for us so we can
+# tweak each test in userspace rather than in kernelspace.
+#
+# The way kmod works is it uses the kernel's usermode helper API to eventually
+# call /sbin/modprobe. It has a limit of the number of concurrent calls
+# possible. The kernel interface to load modules is request_module(), however
+# mount uses get_fs_type(). Both behave slightly differently, but the
+# differences are important enough to test each call separately. For this
+# reason test_kmod starts by providing tests for both calls.
+#
+# The test driver test_kmod assumes a series of defaults which you can
+# override by exporting to your environment prior running this script.
+# For instance this script assumes you do not have xfs loaded upon boot.
+# If this is false, export DEFAULT_KMOD_FS="ext4" prior to running this
+# script if the filesyste module you don't have loaded upon bootup
+# is ext4 instead. Refer to allow_user_defaults() for a list of user
+# override variables possible.
+#
+# You'll want at least 4 GiB of RAM to expect to run these tests
+# without running out of memory on them. For other requirements refer
