Just in case people are wondering about this... When I was first doing the LKM stuff for FreeBSD, I was concerned that an automatically-generated name such as I was planning might conflict with a name already in use by the relevant module. I thought for a while about individual overrides for this problem, but then realized that it was just easier to tack on a unique suffix that I can be certain doesn't actually occur anywhere. Hence, `_mod'. -GAWollman -- Garrett A. Wollman | Shashish is simple, it's discreet, it's brief. ... wollman@lcs.mit.edu | Shashish is the bonding of hearts in spite of distance.
