 Kernel Loadable Modules
 =======================
 
-Jaderné moduly jsou přeložené kusy kódu, které lze za běhu nahrávat do
-Linuxového jádra. Pokud bychom chtěli nalézt analogickou věc v
-uživatelském prostředí, pak by to byly *sdílené knihovny*. Jaderný
-modul může obsahovat kód ovladače zařízení, podporu určitého
-souborového systému, může přidávat do jádra nové funkce (např.
-firewall) či sloužit jako knihovna pomocných funkcí pro jiné moduly
-(např. libata).
-
 Kernel modules are separate compiled pieces of code that can be loaded
 into running Linux kernel. If we wanted to find an analogy in the user
 environment, then it would be shared *shared/dynamically linked library*
