Hi Bartlomiej,

Thanks for your feedback!

So what shall I do? Once an X-Surf has been detected, we refuse to unload, and therefore we never have to release X-Surf resources? That would simplify things a lot.

What's a good way to do that, given that we now have module_exit() defined and an exit function is void?


Thanks,
Max
