lsmod

List loaded kernel modules

Shows every kernel module currently loaded, one line each, with its size and how many other modules depend on it. A module is a driver or feature compiled separately from the kernel and loadable on demand. The first column is the name you pass to modprobe. Combine with grep to find a specific driver, for example lsmod | grep nvme.
