           Summary: ib_ipoib refuses to unload when alias exists in
                    modprobe.conf
           Product: OpenFabrics Linux
           Version: gen2
          Platform: X86-64
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: IPoIB
        AssignedTo: bugzilla at openib.org
        ReportedBy: monis at voltaire.com


This happens on SuSE10 beta8 but not on RedHat

when the line(s)

alias ib0 ib_ipoib
alias ib1 ib_ipoib

exist in /etc/modprobe.conf
then unloading ib_ipoib (modprobe -r) doesn't seem to fail (return status=0)
but the module still remains up (maybe it is being loaded again automatically).
dmesg shows

ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): ib0: link is not ready
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): ib1: link is not ready
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): ib0: link becomes ready
