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 !
