Your kernel module is in ELF image format and this script computes and appends the signature directly to the ELF image in your `my_module.ko` file. The [command]#modinfo# utility can be used to display information about the kernel module's signature, if it is present. For information on using the utility, see xref:Working_with_Kernel_Modules.adoc#sec-Displaying_Information_About_a_Module[Displaying Information About a Module].
