>Description:
The release notes state that kld is the preferred method of loading
modules into the kernel, replacing "lkm and bogosity that went with it"

Unfortunately, lkms came with extensive documentation and examples
that I cannot locate for kld.

So, the question is: Where is the kld documentation? Or.. Should
one continue to write for lkm in the absence of such documentation?

Thanks
