Subject: [PATCH] New minimal module loader for testing...
Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2002 18:57:15 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020725090126.6589F4112@lists.samba.org> (raw)

Hi all,

	Updated my in-kernel module loader patch.  Importantly, it
lacks almost all features, but it serves as a guide for the curious.
Non-x86 parts not even compiled (but tested in userspace previously,
so just some bitrot).

Name: New Module Loader Base
Author: Rusty Russell
Status: Tested on 2.5.27

D: This patch is a rewrite of the kernel module code, simplifying it
D: into an in-kernel module loader.  Note that this patch does not
D: contain any arch-specific modifications (see separate per-arch
D: patches).  Nor does it support:
D:  o Module unloading
D:  o Modversions
D:  o Module parameters.
D:  o Boot parameters.
D: To use it, you will need the trivial replacement module tools from
D: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/people/rusty/module-init-tools-0.2.tar.gz
