NAME
kldunload -- unload a file from the kernel

kldunload [-fv] -i id ...
kldunload [-fv] [-n] name ...

it is currently in use. The users are left to cope as best they can.
-v Be more verbose.
-i id Unload the file with this ID.
-n name Unload the file with this name.
name Unload the file with this name.
EXIT STATUS
The kldunload utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
