CVS commit: src/sys
Module Name: src
Committed By: pooka
Date: Fri Mar 5 18:35:02 UTC 2010
Modified Files:
src/sys/kern: kern_module.c sys_module.c
src/sys/sys: module.h
Log Message:
Move builtin modules to a list in init and load them from there
instead of using linksets directly. This has two implications:
1) It is now possible to "unload" a builtin module provided it is
not busy. This is useful e.g. to disable a kernel feature as
an immediate workaround to a security problem. To re-initialize
the module, modload -f <name> is required.
2) It is possible to use builtin modules which were linked at
runtime with an external linker (dlopen + rump).
