One possibility is to do that with symbol_request() and friends. That would not be pretty though, imho. DVB subsystem uses that currently to load frontend modules dynamically, see dvb_attach() and dvb_frontend_detach() in drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvbdev.h and drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_frontend.c. -- Anssi Hannula ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
