Actually even there I'm not so sure about the entire thing: to my understanding from several discussions (I'm active there a bit, as I'm packaging open-vm-tools, so things like this just raise) seems to be that the host part is almost identical, with very few exceptions. The module set is more or less the same; for Vsock there are other DEFINES used.

Yeah, that's a horrible excuse. I've been talking with them for a long time about this, and they are finally starting to realize that they need to change this. But they move very slowly, so don't count on any big changes any time soon.
Now that you two are talking about vmware, a quick question; I'm seeing this after starting vmware server:
Jan 13 00:15:24 nimrodel kernel: Symbol init_mm is marked as UNUSED, however this module is using it. Jan 13 00:15:24 nimrodel kernel: This symbol will go away in the future. Jan 13 00:15:24 nimrodel kernel: Please evalute if this is the right api to use, and if it really is, submit a report the linux kernel mailinglist together with submitting your code for inclusion.

To whom should this be reported?
vmware.
I guess vmware, but if so, I don't know where.
Neither do I, try their forums or support email address. good luck, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
