Linux Kernel Module: dynamically loading code at runtime

Question

Is there a way to dynamically load compiled c-code in a linux-kernel-module at run-time? I am looking for something like dlopen from libdl.

Yes. Move the code into another modules and then create a dependency to that other module in yours.

Thanks. But I meant without to create a new module, because if it is possible i wouldn't start more than one module. Regards

Why is it important to start only a single module?
