Rex::Co...::Kernel(3)

okay bestie, you're reading Rex::Co...::Kernel(3) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation crew, and it's giving kernel-module management realness 🫶✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Rex::Commands::Kernel — Load/Unload Kernel Modules

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so with this module you can load and unload kernel modules. periodt. 💅

tiny but important vibe check: Version <= 1.0 — all these functions will not be reported. like, not reported at all, bestie 😭

also highkey crucial: all these functions are not idempotent. fr fr, keep that in mind 💀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the whole energy is literally this:

        kmod load => "ipmi_si";

        kmod unload => "ipmi_si";

💖 EXPORTED FUNCTIONS 💖

🌟 kmod($action => $module) 🌟

This function loads or unloads a kernel module. that's the assignment, and it ate 🔥

        task "load", sub {
          kmod load => "ipmi_si";
        };

        task "unload", sub {
          kmod unload => "ipmi_si";
        };

if you're using NetBSD or OpenBSD you have to specify the complete path and, if needed, the entry function. no shortcuts there 🙈

        task "load", sub {
          kmod load => "/usr/lkm/ntfs.o";
          kmod load => "/path/to/module.o", entry => "entry_function";
        };

this page comes from perl v5.42.3, dated 2023-08-05, and it's Rex::Co...::Kernel(3) — bye bestie, go load/unload responsibly 💖✨🎀
