I did that and it appeared to build and install the driver! It seems
that the config file is missing:
cp docs/vmxnet3s.conf /kernel/drv/vmxnet3s.conf
cp: cannot stat `docs/vmxnet3s.conf': No such file or directory
I'm not sure if that matters, but while it sees the NIC, the driver
does not appear to load at bootup. That is, it doesn't show up in
prtconf or modinfo and ifconfig vmxnet3s0 says "Could not open DLPI
link".
