tembun_bk.ru added a comment to D55169: kldload.2: Spell kld in lowercase.

Thank you! Do you think that kld(4) would be an appropriate place for this description? I guess I can incorporate it there.

Current kld(4) page needs a complete rewrite. Starting from the removal of LKM references, which were not relevant since 4.x.
The renovation for kld(4) is technically complicated work, requiring a lot of code reading to provide good manual.

How about just load kernel module?

That's fine with me. However @kib already suggested to provide more information on what the 'kld file' is: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D55170#1261544. I thought maybe we can put this information in kld(4) for instance and use it as reference in kld*(2) man pages?

No, technically we load 'kld file', which is linked into the executing kernel. The file might contain some number of modules (from 0 to arbitrary), which are used as units of initialization.

Don't touch kldfind(2), leave changes only for kldload(2).

kib added a comment to D55170: kldload.2: Provide more information about file argument.

This patch does not make sense (to me at least). kldfind(2) looks up kld from the loaded files in kernel, it does not search anything in the file system.
What the syscall does it strips the passed filename from the non-base path components, and then compares the base name with names of all loaded klds, returning the finding, if any.

Why? When you call invoke less as "more" it works exactly the same but gives a classic BSD status line at the bottom.
