Hello,
today after du (previous kernel 4.11.3-towo.3) I have let vmware workstation run as usual to create its kernel drivers. Here follows the the log of the compile crash.
There was an issue over old 12.1 compiling against 4.9+ kernel which got solved this way running commands as root:
cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
tar xf vmmon.tar
tar xf vmnet.tar
mv vmmon.tar vmmon.tar.old
mv vmnet.tar vmnet.tar.old
sed -i 's/uvAddr, numPages, 0, 0/uvAddr, numPages, 0/g' vmmon-only/linux/hostif.c
sed -i 's/addr, 1, 1, 0/addr, 1, 0/g' vmnet-only/userif.c
tar cf vmmon.tar vmmon-only
tar cf vmnet.tar vmnet-only
rm -r vmmon-only vmnet-only
Could it be the case again?
Or what?
