kmadmin(1M)
Loads/unloads a DLKM to/from the running kernel. Displays status information of modules.
kmadmin –L module_name ...| path_name ...
kmadmin –U module_name ...
kmadmin –u module_id ...
kmadmin –Q module_name ...
kmadmin –q module_id ...
kmadmin –S | -s
kmadmin –k
kmadmin –d directory_name | -D
-L (load) Loads the module(s) to the running kernel. path_name is the complete path to
the source code file (mod.o) of the module.
-U (unload) Unloads the module(s) from the running kernel.
-u (unload) Same as –U (needs module-ID as input)
Note: kmadmin –u 0 unloads all modules.
-Q (query) Displays status information of the module.
-q (query) Same as -Q (needs module-ID as input).
