2016-03-21bugfix: Fix errors related to removal of kernel modulesMartin Klozik1-91/+86
Internal module manager is responsible for removal of all vsperf specific kernel modules. Order of modules has been changed to respect possible dependencies among modules. Manager has been improved to detect modules automatically loaded by modprobe to solve dependecies. These modules are automatically removed. Code of module manager has been refactored.

2015-10-20Implement support of 'insmod' and 'modprobe' commands into ModuleManagerMartin Klozik1-25/+17
Module manager has been enhanced to support both 'insmod' and 'modprobe' commands for kernel module insertion. In case, that .ko suffix is detected then insmod will be used otherwise modprobe will be called. This allows user to specify full path to each module. For example vanilla ovs module can be defined as "OVS_DIR_VANILLA + 'datapath/linux/openvswitch.ko'" to load kernel module matching OVS vanilla source tree version.
