Kmod: The Kernel Module Loader
Kirk Petersen
Kmod is a simple replacement for kerneld. It consists of a
request_module() replacement and a kernel thread called kmod. When
the
kernel requests a module, the kmod wakes up and execve()s modprobe,
passing it the name that was requested.
If you have the /proc filesystem mounted, you can set the path of
modprobe (where the kernel looks for it) by doing:
echo "/sbin/modprobe" > /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe
To periodically unload unused modules, put something like the
following
in root's crontab entry:
0-59/5 * * * * /sbin/rmmod -a
