How can I unload/load modules that complied inside the kernel?
Hello. I am using FreeBSD9.1 [root@h-qa-033 ~]# uname -a FreeBSD h-qa-033 9.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE #0: Tue May 28 11:26:45 IDT 2013 root@h-qa-033:/usr/obj/lab/odeds/freebsd/9.1.0/sys/MYKERNEL amd64 OFED and IB support are compiled in kernel. 1. How can I unload/load modules that complied inside the kernel? [root@h-qa-033 ~]# kldstat -v | grep mlx4 -B 5 Id Refs AddressSize Name 1 10 0x8020 13dcbf8 kernel (/boot/kernel/kernel) Contains modules: Id Name 420 mlxen 418 mlx4ib 419 mlx4 I want to unload/load mlx4ib. 2. Is there any way to take it out of kernel and load manually? Like if_lagg for example: [root@h-qa-033 ~]# kldstat Id Refs AddressSize Name 1 10 0x8020 13dcbf8 kernel 31 0x81812000 2197 if_mos.ko 41 0x81815000 690a if_lagg.ko Thanks a lot.

[Unless things have got more flexible] I dont believe you can unload/load modules that complied inside the kernel. I think you need to compile a new kernel without the modules you want to toggle on off, Then you can use kldload and kldunload.
