i've got empty modules.dep file after compiling new kernel from sourceafter kernel compile, and then kernel module compile and then make modules_install to modules directory, i checked modules.dep file inside destination modules directory is empty, and then i ran this commanddepmod -a -b <kernel-modules-dest-dir> -e -F <kernel-source-directory>/System.map -n -v 4.7.0and the result was :# Aliases extracted from modules themselves.# Soft dependencies extracted from modules themselves.# Aliases for symbols, used by symbol_request().# Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading.i'am compiling kernel 4.7.0 using host with version 4.4.x (ubuntu 16.04), there are a lot of .ko files inside <kernel-modules-dest-dir> but somehow depmod don't see any compiled loadable kernel modulesthese are roughly the command script i ran :cp ../../kernel-config ./.config-x86_64make mrpropermake menuconfigmake -j8make bzImagecp arch/x86/boot/bzImage ../../vmlinuzmkdir -p ../../kernel-modulesmake modulesmake modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=../../kernel-modulesis they anything wrong in my compilation step ?
