Summary: Module vmci does not compile
Initial Comment:
Iäm trying to spin up new rpms for open-vm-tools (opensuse).
The configure uses --without-kernel-modules (as the build actually happens in a
controlled virtual environment, not running the target kernel).
the modules themself are after built using
#make modules
for module in %{vm_modules}; do
pushd modules/linux/$module
make -C /usr/src/linux-obj/%{_target_cpu}/$flavor modules M=$PWD
VM_CCVER=$(gcc -dumpversion) SRCROOT=$PWD
popd
done
vm_modules contains a list of modules to be built: "vmblock vmhgfs ... vmci"
this works (and did for long time now) for all modules, but on vmci it fails
with the following errors:
+ for module in vmblock vmhgfs vmmemctl vmsync vmxnet vsock vmci
+ pushd modules/linux/vmci
/usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmci
/usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug /usr/src/packages/BUILD
++ gcc -dumpversion
+ make -C /usr/src/linux-obj/i586/debug modules
M=/usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmci VM_CCVER=4.3
SRCROOT=/usr/src/packages/BUILD/obj/debug/modules/linux/vmci
make: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.27-rc3-2-obj/i386/debug'
make -C ../../../linux-2.6.27-rc3-2
O=/usr/src/linux-2.6.27-rc3-2-obj/i386/debug/. modules
Using standalone build system.

I would anticipate if somebody could have a look into this. Most likely a small
thing which I miss. The Makefile seems to be an exact copy of the one from
vmxnet, except to the drivers name... so I really miss something.
Thank you

I really don't know what the problem might be. As you said, the Makefiles
are virtually identical: the only difference being the name of the driver.
Could you do some basic sanity checks:
- Make sure you haven't modified files in git, and that git's view of the
source is healthy (assuming you're using git).
- Make sure the file permissions are correct.
- Make sure you haven't set any environment variables that might affect
things.
- Make sure your kernel tree is sane.
When exactly did this start? With 2008.08.08? Or some time later?

compared to the compilation of vmxnet, the following line is different:
vmxnet: Using 2.6.x kernel build system.
vmci (and also vsock): Using standalone build system.
Maybe it helps.
