Module init for compiled in vs loaded modules

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

 



Hi,

For kernel modules can be loaded by explicitly do insmod etc for ones that are not compiled into the kernel.

1) But where do i look to find how the kernel loads(ie. calls the fn exported by module_init(XXXX)) for modules compiled into the kernel. 

2) Does the kernel call some kind of probe to load them ? say i have 2 module compiled into the kernel for 2 diff type of ether cards. Would the kernel call init on both.

thanks !
