The node "Enabling Advice" in the elisp manual says:

                (ad-disable-advice 'foo 'before 'my-advice)

        This function by itself only changes the enable flag for a
        piece of advice.  To make the change take effect in the
        advised definition, you must activate the advice for `foo'
        again:

                (ad-activate 'foo)

There is a similar comment in advice.el ~line 642


What is the document you refer to?  Does it mention the above
answer?
