+ This option compresses the kernel modules when 'make

+
+ The modules will be compressed either using gzip or xz depend on the
+ choice made in "Compression algorithm".
+
+ module-init-tools has support for gzip format while kmod handle gzip
+ and xz compressed modules.
+
+ When a kernel module is installed from outside of the main kernel
+ source and uses the Kbuild system for installing modules then that
+ kernel module will also be compressed when it is installed.
+
+ This option provides little benefit when the modules are to be used inside
+ an initrd or initramfs, it generally is more efficient to compress the whole
+ initrd or initramfs instead.
+
+ This is fully compatible with signed modules while the signed module is
+ compressed. module-init-tools or kmod handles decompression and provide to
+ other layer the uncompressed but signed payload.
