Will modules installed by insmod command persist after rebooting?
- by apache
There is how the book I'm reading describe the insmod utility:
The program loads the module code and
data into the kernel, which, in turn,
performs a function similar to that of
ld, in that it links any unresolved
symbol in the module to the symbol
table of the kernel. Unlike the
linker, however, the kernel doesn’t
modify the module’s disk file, but
rather an in-memory copy.
It looks like it won't persist since it's in-memory, but I'm not sure.
