When packets are in flight, references go to the device and the device cannot be unloaded until those references get dropped. This behavior makes sense because otherwise you have to figure out the myriad of references (each ipv4 address, each ipv6 address, routes, ARP entries, etc.) just to perform such a simple operation. If you do not mean to unload the device, simply do not do it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
