Subject: [PATCH] ipvs: autoload ipvs on genl access
Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2021 15:02:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211021130255.4177-1-linux@weissschuh.net> (raw)
The kernel provides the functionality to automatically load modules
providing genl families. Use this to remove the need for users to
manually load the module.
