[PATCH] patch's for vmware 2.0.4 for use with linux-2.4.8 kernel
From: Jason Thomas ([email protected])
Date: Thu Aug 16 2001 - 03:49:38 ESTattached are two very small patches for those that want them. they make vmware's kernel modules compile with 2.4.8. Its not all my work, its a combination of what was posted a while back and my work.
Jason,
a small gotcha in your vmmon patch. You moved up hostif.h in driver.c,
but you forgot to remove the original include. See my attached new version of the patch.

hostif.hindriver.c,

I've applied the patch with your fixes, and I've always noticed that VMware seem to leak a bit of memory (occording to top and ps). Running with 128Mb in a Win2k box it started off at 161Mb process size (140Mb RSS) and within 5 minutes it had turned into 203Mb process size (still only 140Mb RSS). Have anyone seen similar behavior, and does anyone have any pointers to where I can find more info on it?
mvh,

probably better to ask the vmware folks. They also have some news
groups served from news.vmware.com
