libkcapi - Linux Kernel Crypto API User Space Interface Library
The Linux kernel exports a Netlink interface of type AF_ALG to allow user space to utilize the kernel crypto API. libkcapi uses this Netlink interface and exports easy to use APIs so that a developer does not need to consider the low-level Netlink interface handling. The library does not implement any cipher algorithms. All consumer requests are sent to the kernel for processing. Results from the kernel crypto API are returned to the consumer via the library API.

Libraries to handle kernel module loading and unloading
The kmod-libs package provides runtime libraries for any application that wishes to load or unload Linux kernel modules from the running system.
GNU cpio copies files into or out of a cpio or tar archive. The archive can be another file on the disk, a magnetic tape, or a pipe.
systemd is a system and service manager that runs as PID 1 and starts the rest of the system.
The GNU C Library project provides the core libraries for the GNU system and GNU/Linux systems, as well as many other systems that use Linux as the kernel. These libraries provide critical APIs including ISO C11, POSIX.1-2008, BSD, OS-specific APIs and more. These APIs include such foundational facilities as open, read, write, malloc, printf, getaddrinfo, dlopen, pthread_create, crypt, login, exit and more.
A free general-purpose data compreession software with LZMA2 algorithm
XZ Utils is free general-purpose data compression software with a high compression ratio. XZ Utils were written for POSIX-like systems, but also work on some not-so-POSIX systems. XZ Utils are the successor to LZMA Utils. The core of the XZ Utils compression code is based on LZMA SDK, but it has been modified quite a lot to be suitable for XZ Utils. The primary compression algorithm is currently LZMA2, which is used inside the .xz container format. With typical files, XZ Utils create 30% smaller output than gzip and 15% smaller output than bzip2.
Grep searches one or more input files for lines containing a match to a specified pattern. By default, Grep outputs the matching lines.
The GNU Find Utilities are the basic directory searching utilities of the GNU operating system. These programs are typically used in conjunction with other programs to provide modular and powerful directory search and file locating capabilities to other commands. The tools supplied with this package are: find - search for files in a directory hierarchy locate - list files in databases that match a pattern updatedb - update a file name database xargs - build and execute command lines from standard input
A set of basic GNU tools commonly used in shell scripts
These are the GNU core utilities. This package is the combination of the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.
Utilities that provide system information.
The procps package contains a set of system utilities that provide system information. Procps includes ps, free, skill, pkill, pgrep, snice, tload, top, uptime, vmstat, pidof, pmap, slabtop, w, watch and pwdx.
non-interactive command-line text editor
Sed is a non-interactive command-line text editor. A stream editor is used to per-form basic text transformations on an input stream (a file or input from a pipeline).
The util-linux package contains a random collection of files that implements some low-level basic linux utilities.
gzip is a single-file/stream lossless data compression utility, where the resulting compressed file generally has the suffix .gz.
The kmod package provides several commands to manage the kernel modules, such as insmod to load and rmmod to unload the modules.
The basic directory layout for a Linux system
The filesystem package is one of the basic packages that is installed on a Linux system. Filesystem contains the basic directory layout for a Linux operating system, including the correct permissions for the directories.
dracut contains tools to create bootable initramfses for the Linux kernel. Unlike previous implementations, dracut hard-codes as little as possible into the initramfs. dracut contains various modules which are driven by the event-based udev. Having root on MD, DM, LVM2, LUKS is supported as well as NFS, iSCSI, NBD, FCoE with the dracut-network package.
Bash is the GNU Project's shell. Bash is the Bourne Again SHell. Bash is an sh-compatible shell that incorporates useful features from the Korn shell (ksh) and C shell (csh). It is intended to conform to the IEEE POSIX P1003.2/ISO 9945.2 Shell and Tools standard. It offers functional improvements over sh for both programming and interactive use. In addition, most sh scripts can be run by Bash without modification.
Rule-based device node and kernel event manager
This package contains systemd-udev and the rules and hardware database needed to manage device nodes. This package is necessary on physical machines and in virtual machines, but not in containers.
