[PATCH 1/3] libkmod: add finit_module logic

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

 



When a module is being loaded directly from disk (no compression, etc),
pass the file descriptor to the new finit_module() syscall. If the
finit_module syscall is exported by the kernel syscall headers, use it.
Additionally, if the kernel's module.h file is available, map kmod flags
to finit_module flags.
