Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: kernel modules Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Dominique Leuenberger (dimstar) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: asm/semaphore.h no longer exists in kernel tree Initial Comment: Hello, Due to some changes in the kernel tree, asm/semaphore.h does no longer exist. This currently stops from compiling open-vm-tools (module vmhgfs) When I find some time, I'll try to prepare a patch (it would be a simple one, as it most likely only has to be changed to linux/semaphore.h, but the complexity will be not breaking the old kernel compatibility.. like always :) ) If you happen to already have a fix for this, please let me know.. so we do not double-invest time on it. (last version I tested was open-vm-tools 2008-08-08 against kernel 2.6.27-rc3) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Adar Dembo (adembo) Date: 2008-08-24 03:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1867590 Originator: NO I'm not able to attach the patch to this bug report for some reason.

Try this out; it'll be in the next code refresh. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=989708&aid=2071170&group_id=204462 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ open-vm-tools-devel mailing list open-vm-tools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/open-vm-tools-devel
