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?
