Sorry I didn't see this mail until now - RE:

Yes, I raised this bug because I think modinfo should return 0 exit status if a requested module is built-in, not just when it has been loaded, like this modified version does: $ modinfo snd modinfo: ERROR: Module snd not found. built-in: snd $ echo $? 0
What was the query about the Bug 118661 that needs to be answered ? I don't see any query on the bug report - just a comment from someone who also agrees modinfo should return OK for a built-in module .
Glad to hear someone is finally considering fixing modinfo to report status of built-in modules - with only a 2 year response time.
Thanks & Best Regards, Jason
