As usual, a lot of IMHO indeed my words...
1. If I correct understood your problem you acquire the parameter p in a
module A and then calulation over p are done in a module B. In this case
you can EXPORT_SYMBOL in B function performing calculation, modprobing B
before A and then recalling B's routine in the A module. The routine
will be visible because you exported it :)
2. You've got a running kernel and your module A. If you want to load
module A you've got ONE way: using modprobe. If you want to recompile
the whole kernel including A code, A is not a module anymore and you
must play with Makefile and some #ifdef clause inside A's code.
