There are smart answers around for the question "how to see which processes use module and prohibid rmmod from working", like this one: http://stackoverflow.com/a/15494206 But there is no easy way to check it "just in time", i.e. you have no special debug settings set up, and you just want to know which processes make module's refcnt positive. Would such feature be considered useful? If yes, then also guidance/mentorship would be appreciated (i am not experienced in kernel development). -- Andrey Utkin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
