The same issues with module unloading also occur with simply shutting down a module, unless you don't mind letting the module leak memory.

Why o why? Posted Jan 31, 2004 0:23 UTC (Sat) by giraffedata (subscriber, #1954) [Link] I guess it depends upon what you mean by shutdown.However, the examples given are just cases where traditional modules do something only at load time, so the only way to do it over is to unload and load again. But there's no reason those modules couldn't do the same thing (tearing down, rebuilding) while loaded and running.
