A system administrator cannot make a kernel module dynamically loadable--that is done by the programmer who wrote the module. Therefore, before you demand load or demand unload a module, you need to know if it can be configured as a DLKM.
To determine if a module can be configured as a DLKM:
where device is the name of the module and the name of the file you want to examine. For the format of the file, see Master(4dsp).
If yes, then the module can be a DLKM. Continue with this procedure.
If no, the module is not loadable.
If yes, the module can be loadable, but needs to be configured. See ``Configuring a dynamically loadable kernel module''.
If no, the module is loadable and is configured as a DLKM.
