Hi,
this is a 2.4.0-test11 system; rmmod -a (modutils-2.3.21) fails to unload unused autocleanable modules: modprobe -r behaves the same, BTW
root@cantaloupe:~ > lsmod Module Size Used by ppp_deflate 44736 0 (autoclean) (unused) ppp_generic 25728 0 (autoclean) [ppp_deflate] root@cantaloupe:~ > rmmod -a root@cantaloupe:~ > lsmod Module Size Used by ppp_deflate 44736 0 (autoclean) (unused) ppp_generic 25728 0 (autoclean) [ppp_deflate]
As the binary does just a syscall delete_module(0), I guess it's the kernel's fault. Same behaviour with 2.4.0-test9 and -test11-ac2.
Is this known and to be expected?
