NAME
       init_module - Initialize a loadable module entry

SYNOPSIS
       long sys_init_module (void *umod, unsigned long len,
			     const char *uargs);

DESCRIPTION
       init_module initializes a loadable module entry given by umod, which is
       indicated  by  the module's init function. The len and uargs values are
       sent to the load_module function, which is utilized by  sys_init_module
       to  get information on the module. The uargs contain any user space ar‐
       guments to apply to the module. The len value indicates the size of the
       memory section the module loads into.

RETURN VALUE
       init_module  returns 0 on success; otherwise, it returns one of the er‐
       rors listed in the "Errors" section.

ERRORS
       -EPERM The user must have administrator module  modification  capabili‐
	      ties.

       -EINTR Only  one module can be loaded at a time. This error is returned
	      if more than one module is attempting to be loaded.
