[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH] Instead of trying to remove kvm modules with rmmod, use modprobe -r, as it handles module dependencies better

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In certain situations, trying to do a rmmod on the kvm modules might
generate errors, as there is a chain of dependencies involved. Instead,
let's use modprobe -r, as it handles dependencies.
