Thank you! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: cjbaar (cjbaar0) Date: 2011-07-01 14:29 Message: OK; thanks for your help. I didn't realize the two were that closely related. I'll wait and see what happens. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marcelo Vanzin (mvanzin) Date: 2011-07-01 13:57 Message: Yes, the next version should have all the features currently in the open-vm-tools version. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: cjbaar (cjbaar0) Date: 2011-07-01 13:54 Message: Great; thanks. I'll look for that. FYI, I have the driver that came from vmware, but it doesn't support jumbo frames. According to the online discussion forums I looked through, the open version does. Are you saying that the next release from vmware will be based on this one and should support that feature? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marcelo Vanzin (mvanzin) Date: 2011-07-01 13:49 Message: To compile vmxnet3 on Solaris you need an optional package called GLDv3 (it's not in the default Solaris install). I don't really know how to get it (I'm sure I downloaded it before, but it was a looong time ago). The pre-built binary should be available with the next version of Tools from VMware, which should be released soon (don't know exact dates, and not even sure I could talk about it if I knew). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: cjbaar (cjbaar0) Date: 2011-07-01 13:44 Message: mvanzin... I really appreciate all of your help. But it would appear the compilation of this package is beyond me. An attempt to compile the driver module directly results in:/usr/local/bin/gcc -O2 -Wall -Werror -Wno-unknown-pragmas -U_NO_LONGLONG -D_KERNEL -I../../../lib/include -ffreestanding -nodefaultlibs -m32 -c vmxnet3_main.c -o i386/vmxnet3_main.o vmxnet3_main.c:36: error: syntax error before "mac_capab_t" vmxnet3_main.c:39: error: syntax error before "vmxnet3_mac_callbacks" vmxnet3_main.c:39: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `vmxnet3_mac_callbacks' vmxnet3_main.c:40: error: `MC_GETCAPAB' undeclared here (not in a function) vmxnet3_main.c:40: error: initializer element is not constant vmxnet3_main.c:40: error: (near initialization for `vmxnet3_mac_callbacks') I've never had to trace through so many errors in a compilation process, and I don't really know what I'm looking for. Is there way to obtain a version of this driver that has already been compiled for Solaris x86? Thanks again. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marcelo Vanzin (mvanzin) Date: 2011-07-01 13:20 Message: If all you want is vmxnet3, you should be able to execute its makefile directly without having to configure anything. It just needs a few variables to be set (see "if SOLARIS" section in modules/Makefile.am). The configure script doesn't have an option to just build the kernel modules. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: cjbaar (cjbaar0) Date: 2011-07-01 13:04 Message: OK; I got through the glib problems; now I am stick on libintl. /bin/bash ../../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -D__PIC__ -Wall -Werror -Wno-unused-value -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-unknown-pragmas -Wno-uninitialized -o vmtoolsd vmtoolsd-cmdLine.o vmtoolsd-mainLoop.o vmtoolsd-mainPosix.o vmtoolsd-pluginMgr.o vmtoolsd-serviceObj.o vmtoolsd-toolsRpc.o vmtoolsd-svcSignals.o /src/x86/open-vm-tools-8.4.2-261024/libvmtools/libvmtools.la -L/usr/local/lib -lglib-2.0 -liconv -L/usr/local/lib -lgmodule-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -liconv -L/usr/local/lib -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -liconv -threads -L/usr/local/lib -lgthread-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -liconv libtool: link: gcc -D__PIC__ -Wall -Werror -Wno-unused-value -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-unknown-pragmas -Wno-uninitialized -o .libs/vmtoolsd vmtoolsd-cmdLine.o vmtoolsd-mainLoop.o vmtoolsd-mainPosix.o vmtoolsd-pluginMgr.o vmtoolsd-serviceObj.o vmtoolsd-toolsRpc.o vmtoolsd-svcSignals.o -threads /src/x86/open-vm-tools-8.4.2-261024/libvmtools/.libs/libvmtools.so -L/usr/local/lib /usr/local/lib/libdnet -L/usr/local/ssl/lib -L/usr/openwin/lib -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.7/lib -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lsocket -lnsl -lrpcsvc -lcrypt -lpthread -L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.2/lib /usr/local/lib/libgmodule-2.0.so /usr/local/lib/libgobject-2.0.so /usr/local/lib/libgthread-2.0.so /usr/local/lib/libglib-2.0.so /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so -threads -R/usr/local/lib Undefined first referenced symbol in file libintl_gettext vmtoolsd-cmdLine.o libintl appears to be version 8.0.2; have also tried against 8.1.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 179782 Apr 21 2009 libintl.a -rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 999 Apr 21 2009 libintl.la lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Jul 1 14:02 libintl.so -> libintl.so.8.0.2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Jul 1 14:02 libintl.so.8 -> libintl.so.8.0.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 128480 Apr 21 2009 libintl.so.8.0.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 48447 Jan 7 03:25 libintl.so.8.1.1 FYI... all I am trying to get out of this is the vmxnet3 driver.

That seems to have gotten me past the PIC error. Now I apparently have a bunch of glib errors to deal with... but that's probably just a version issue. Thanks again. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Marcelo Vanzin (mvanzin) Date: 2011-07-01 10:42 Message: I remember some old versions of gcc on Solaris don't define __PIC__ when you specify -fPIC.
