[PATCH] Remove "rmmod -w" documentation and getopt entry

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

 



Hi,

The changelog for version 11 mentions that the "--wait" option on rmmod is no
longer documented, but it still appears in rmmod.xml. In addition, the getopt
handling in rmmod.c no longer supports "-w" or "--wait", but the cmdopts
declaration still includes it.

This patch removes the cmdopts declaration and the documentation.
