mbalmer d1912e7839 Do not not look for modules in the current working directory first. This is
to prevent from accidentally loading ./module.kmod when we actually wanted to
load module from the system module area.

To load a module from a filesystem path, the module name must contain at
least on path separator character (/), to load a module from the system
module areas, the name must not contain a path separator character:

modload ./mymod.kmod      # loads mymod.kmod from the curren directory
modload mymod             # loads mymod.kmod from the system module area

pooka e73ffdda13 Add rump client support for module utilities. It should be noted
that while modstat and modunload and builtin modules work exactly
the same as in the host case, modload loads file system kernel
modules from the rump kernel namespace.  By default, archs which
have rump support for the kernel kernel ABI have the host module
directory mapped into the rump kernel namespace at the same location
(/stand/...).  Therefore, if the *host* module directory is populated,
"rump.modload foo" will work as expected.  Otherwise, RUMP_MODULEBASE
can be used to point to the module directory.

wiz d28fa3c589 Remove -P from -p section, not from -f one. 2009-06-11 08:11:52 +00:00
jnemeth 59cc9994df -p -P doesn't make much sense since no module will be loaded. 2009-06-10 03:30:32 +00:00
jnemeth cbd3656645 Add the MODCTL_NO_PROP flag to tell the kernel to ignore <module>.prop.
Add the '-P' option to modload(8) to set this flag.
2009-06-09 20:35:02 +00:00
jnemeth 5ce0121eaa Add a new [-d var] option which when combined with -p and -m will allow
you to delete vars from the existing <module>.prop file.

wiz 0246bc0bc2 Sort options. 2009-06-05 09:31:07 +00:00
jnemeth 3ee4fdb595 Add a "-m plist" option. This option will read in an existing
<module>.prop file and merge any options supplied on the "command
line".

This code will serve as the basis for in-kernel merging.

wiz d4f65fc8c5 Sort option descriptions. Split usage in SYNOPSIS in two, since there
are two different methods of calling it.
Add arguments to option descriptions.

jnemeth 47371f5f63 Add -p option which outputs a property list suitable for loading with a
module.  This is in preparation for having the kernel load an optional
<module>.prop alongside a module, which is useful for passing options
to autoloaded modules and modules loaded at boot time.
