[PATCH] tools: Print a message if refcnt attribute is missing

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

 



Currently, check_module_inuse returns a wrong user message
if the kernel is built without module unloading support.

Fix it by returning a more specific error, in case 'refcnt'
attribute is missing.
