In 7th slide - "Improvements" - Only necessary kernel modules
How does it actually refers to systemd?
You do not need to have modules loaded that are not used much. They can be
loaded when a program that needs them is
run and unloaded when the program terminates. This is done with:
/etc/modules-load.d/<PROG>.conf
I'll try to make a video tonight to demonstrate this
/etc/modules-load.d/ *adds* modules otherwise not loaded
by the kernel and they are loaded at boot
Strange I thought that I used this to have the loop module loaded when starting
truecrypt
and unloaded when stopping truecrypt. I have to check this out
no, it is to have the module loaded when truecrypt is installed and stop try
to load it at boot after it is uninstalled, there is not much to checkout
because the syntax of the file even in theory has no connection to a running
process and so it can't work this way
additionally it would be wrong because unload kernel modules is not
always a good idea - better said: it is rarely a good idea if not
done by hand for a reason
I made a screencast some time ago. The part from 09:10 to 12:10 shows
this happening. (loading and unloading when truecrypt is started and quit)
