Re: [Xen-devel] Why backend permanent?

Hello, friends
I wonder why netbk and all the backend device drivers are
permanent module.
I think they are modules but don't have module_exit function.
If they do not have a module_exit, this means they are supposed to be
compiled in the kernel statically and thus cannot be compiled a
modules.
In this case, how can I debug or develop new backend device driver
without rebooting the whole system?
I wonder if that is an obligation from a developer's point of view?
Did you try building a dummy backend module?
Does it spits some warnings or crashes Xen on insmod?
Thanks
