Kernel Loading

For more information about the sequence of installing and loading device drivers, see Writing Device Drivers in Oracle Solaris 11.4. The basic procedure is to copy your driver to /kernel/drv and your module to /kernel/strmod. For drivers run add_drv. For more information, see the add_drv(8) man page.


Note - The autoload facility looks for modules to reside in /kernel/strmod. If the object resides elsewhere the module will not be loaded.
