The name can be either the name of a module file .Pq Pa cpufreq.ko , the same name without the .Pa .ko extension .Pq Pa cpufreq , or the name of a module contained within that file .Pq Pa cpu/ichss . Only the latter will return correct results if the module is compiled into the kernel. .Pp The .Fn kld_load function is a simple wrapper around the .Xr kldload 2 function. It returns zero if and only if the corresponding .Fn kldload call succeeded or returned .Er EEXIST (signifying that the requested module was already loaded). .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr kldfirstmod 2 , .Xr kldload 2 , .Xr kldnext 2 , .Xr kldstat 2 , .Xr modfnext 2 , .Xr modstat 2 , .Xr kld 4 .Sh HISTORY The .Fn kld_isloaded and .Fn kld_load functions first appeared in .Fx 6.3 . .Sh AUTHORS The .Fn kld_isloaded and .Fn kld_load functions and this manual page were written by .An Dag-Erling Sm\(/orgrav Aq des@FreeBSD.org .
