dynamic linking while insmod


Hello All,

I'm trying to figure out how dynamic linking happens in Linux kernel while loading a module.

when I run #insmod test.ko

It'll will call test.c file's module_init(...);

but how this code is loaded into the kernel?

hope you all understand what I'm searching for


Thanks,
Ashok
