Manually Removing Modules - UG1586

In some specific cases it might also be necessary to manually remove Onload driver modules before upgrading to a more recent version. To do this, list the modules and remove each dependency before removing the modules:

#  lsmod | grep onload
onload                929792  4
sfc_char              102400  1 onload
sfc_resource          294912  2 onload,sfc_char

and:

# lsmod | grep sfc
sfc_char              102400  1 onload
sfc_resource          294912  2 onload,sfc_char
sfc                   540672  0
mtd                    69632  13 sfc

To remove modules:

# rmmod onload
# rmmod sfc_char

Repeat the rmmod command for each module.
