Bug 31566

Summary: VESA module loadable while statically compiled
Product: Base System Reporter: brad <brad>
Component: kernAssignee: freebsd-bugs (Nobody) <bugs>

Description brad 2001-10-28 20:20:03 UTC 
When options VESA is placed in a kernel config file, and one boots to this kernel, it is possible to load vesa.ko using kldload, and to list it using kldstat. The proper behaviour should be to inform the user that this code is already compiled in.

Fix: 

None.
How-To-Repeat: add 

options VESA

to the kernel config file, reboot; kldload vesa.ko; kldstat

kldunload vesa.ko yields no crash.
