Hello Andrea, Daniel, I would like to understand how we can give some momentum to this topic, @Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com> : Are you still convinced that libvirt should only deploy the modules-load.d file as part of the installation ? If we take this route, one solution to work-around the reboot need is to call the /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-modules-load binary on the installed conf file (example : /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-modules-load /etc/modules-load.d/msr.conf) at installation. If you both agree on this design, I will go ahead and submit something. On Fri, Jul 25, 2025 at 3:48 PM Andrea Bolognani <abologna@redhat.com> wrote:

installation, the module is not actually loaded, a reboot is necessary to make it happen.
You need that to make systemd service activation happen too, so the need for a reboot isn't new.
Unlike Fedora/RHEL, on Debian/Ubuntu services are automatically started right after the package is installed. So a reboot is generally not needed.
