DLKM Procedures for Dynamically Configured Loadable
Modules
This section provides detailed procedures for configuring, loading, and
unloading DLKM Enabled kernel modules. Procedural information is
shown in three different ways. The first two are summary formats and
the third provides detailed procedure steps.
1. DLKM Procedural Flowchart
Use this chart (Figure 3-5 on page 304) as a reference to view all of
the procedures and to determine the correct sequence in which to
perform them.
2. Tables of Loadable Module Configuration and Management
Procedures
These tables group the procedures into three phases: Preparing,
Loading, and Maintaining procedures. There is one table for each
Loadable Module type:
• Table 3-10, “Dynamically Configured Loadable Module
Procedures,” on page 305
• Table 3-11, “Statically Configured Loadable Modules
Procedures,” on page 306
3. DLKM Procedures
This section presents step-by-step instructions for preparing,
configuring, loading and unloading (or activating) loadable modules.
The detailed procedure steps are presented in two sections:
• “DLKM Procedures for Dynamically Configured Loadable
Modules” on page 303
• “DLKM Procedures for Statically Configured Loadable Modules”
on page 311
