  to add to my earlier answer, the easiest solution is to just rebuild
the entire kernel.  but if you're working with a loadable module, you
can always just add module parameters, and change the behaviour by
unloading the module, and reloading it with a new parameter value.

  there are a number of ways to do what you're asking and (i'm not
trying to tease) they will be covered during the course. :-)

p.s.  i will be out for most of the day so i won't be around to answer
questions.  but head over to the course:

http://www.crashcourse.ca/introduction-linux-kernel-programming/introduction-linux-kernel-programming

and play.  there are two more free lessons, at which point you *will*
have to subscribe to continue.

and, yes, i will be posting a relatively detailed syllabus of the rest
of the course before asking anyone to subscribe.
