[Bug 1083719] Re: open-vm-dkms 2011.12.20-562307-0ubuntu1: open-vm-tools kernel module failed to build [error: implicit declaration of function ‘d_alloc_root’]
open-vm-dkms is unable to build drivers on Precise currently for both the stock 3.2 kernel and the newer HWE (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack) kernels. For those needing an HWE kernel in your Precise installation, the Saucy or newer HWE kernels are supported by a new open-vm-tools-lts-trusty package being introduced in bug #1275656. Older kernels, which are still supported, will still require a fix in open-vm-dkms as the newer packages mentioned above require a v3.9 or newer kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to open-vm-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1083719 Title: open-vm-dkms 2011.12.20-562307-0ubuntu1: open-vm-tools kernel module failed to build [error: implicit declaration of function ‘d_alloc_root’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1083719/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

In saucy, it appears that vmxnet and vmblock are not needed (nor is vmci). The vmxnet3 is distributed with the kernel, and in fact if you use the installer from the latest vmware-tools ISO, it does not build vmxnet since the installer script knows this. vmblock required a bit of changes to work (kernel file operation struct changed a bit, as well as some calls), but I was able to get it compile and spin up /proc/fs/vmblock. It should be noted that copy/paste of text works without vmblock in the latest kernel. I did not test drag drop functionality, since I'm running a minimal desktop at the moment. Finally, using the hgfs module sources from vmware-tools ISO, a single line change allowed me to build the hgfs module and mount shares in 3.11. I did manage to turn this code into a dkms module, and it built just fine. I should note that even without the modules built by dkms, if I run the vmware-user-suid-wrapper (which spawns vmtoolsd for the user), it does complain about vmblock not being there (unless I use my own built vmblock module), but guest resizing works just fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to open-vm-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1083719 Title: open-vm-dkms 2011.12.20-562307-0ubuntu1: open-vm-tools kernel module failed to build [error: implicit declaration of function ‘d_alloc_root’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1083719/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Looking at my notes I have to add some stuff back to the DKMS files. Make a few changes to debian/control. My goal is to make this update the first upload as the official maintainer of the package, I just have to send e-mails to sponsors for testimonials. Timetable: a month, testimonials will probably take like a week.

My plan is to backport the Raring packaging. I plan to start working as soon my CVE fix gets approved for raring, as well as my Saucy proposal. It's gonna be a good amount of work because there's stuff in the Quantal/Raring packages that won't work in Precise. So basically it'll be a little bit of trial and error. I'll probably do a complete backport, and work my way back from there. After everything is where I want it to be, I create the proposal. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to open-vm-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1083719 Title: open-vm-dkms 2011.12.20-562307-0ubuntu1: open-vm-tools kernel module failed to build To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/1083719/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I can confirm this is happening on my setup as well, but I pretty much have the same setup as the op. 12.02, 64bit and all that so I think my bug report would be pretty much a repeat of what was already posted. Is this problem fixed, or not a problem in the first place on 12.10 or 13.04 releases? Is there a way to get it to install yet or are there any other ways to work arround this problem?

This is one of the reasons I want to start backporting the newer packages to versions like 12.04. This is part of my Saucy blueprint.
