[vbox-dev] Problem with memory management in VirtualBox with kernel 5.8

2020-06-28 Thread Larry Finger
When kernel 5.8 eliminated the export of kernel routines such as __get_vm_area(), VirtualBox was forced to revert to code used before that routine was introduced in 2.6.23. The resulting code will build but not load with the error "modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'vboxdrv': Exec format error".
