Mikhail Teterin <m...@freebsd.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |m...@freebsd.org --- Comment #35 from Mikhail Teterin <m...@freebsd.org> --- I too would like the VirtualBox ports upgraded (the current latest from upstream is 6.0.10) -- at least, the ose-guest-additions, because that's all I use. The one point, that all of the virtualbox ports have omitted so far is adding -DPAE to the compiler command lines building kernel modules. I'm trying to deal with this myself currently with things like this: .if ${.CURDIR:M*/ports/*virtualbox-ose*} CFLAGS+= -DPAE COPTFLAGS+= -DPAE CXXFLAGS+= -DPAE .endif but I'm never certain, if they have the proper effect every time or if my vboxguest.ko is subtly miscompiled :( This may be less important to the server port, as VM-hosting servers these days tend to be 64bit anyway, but it is perfectly normal for a guest VM to be 32-bit -- using PAE to have more than 4GB of total memory, while limiting each process to 4GB. I'm not sure, if PAE should be a "flavor" or an option... Given that it only affects kernel-modules (both for the host- and the guest- ports), maybe, the vboxguest.ko needs a port of its own (like the already-existing virtualbox-ose-kmod). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-emulation To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-emulation-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
