5361 | When inheriting the :ref:`ref-classes-kernel-module-split` class, this | ||
5362 | variable controls whether kernel modules are split into separate packages | ||
5363 | or bundled into a single package. | ||
5364 | |||
5365 | For some use cases, a monolithic kernel module package | ||
5366 | :term:`KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME` that contains all modules built from the | ||
5367 | kernel sources may be preferred to speed up the installation. | ||
5368 | |||
5369 | By default, this variable is set to ``1``, resulting in one package per | ||
5370 | module. Setting it to any other value will generate a single monolithic | ||

5375 | If :term:`KERNEL_SPLIT_MODULES` is set to 0, it is still possible to | ||

5377 | :term:`KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME` is ``kernel-modules``) to :term:`IMAGE_INSTALL`. | ||
