Hi,
I just want to know,
whenever we load IOKit driver using kextload command,
does IOKit driver wired down in the memory or can it be paged out
whenever
there is a lack of memory?
and what about the xnu_kernel, I think it can't be paged out otherwise
who
will do this paging?
If I asked a very silly question, please pardon me for it.

All kernel memory is wired by default and isn't paged.
This is a good reason to use kernel memory sparingly.
