unloading a module with no exit routine?

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

 



  as i read it, if you build and load a module with no exit() routine,
once that module's loaded, it is absolutely unloadable until you
reboot the system, is that correct?  i just tested that and, via
lsmod, i see:

$ lsmod
...
hi                      1760  0 [permanent]

  that certainly suggests to *me* that it's there for good, no matter
what i do.  is that correct?
