Abstract(in English) Run-time updating of software component is a key technology for non-stop systems. We have already proposed a method for updating running user processes, however that method could not be applied to operating systems. In this paper, we propose a new method for run-time updating of network device driver, which provides context migration from an old driver to updated one. This paper also describes requirements for our method and a basic design built on the FreeBSD operating system.
