That module uses "kernel_thread", which was deprecated and marked for removal around 2.6.23/2.6.24. It was finally pulled in 2.6.27. (Check <kernel source>/Documentation/feature-removal-schedule)
The challenge is that kthread uses task handles and kernel_thread uses process id's. It looks like PIDs may not be guaranteed to be globally unique with namespaces(?). PID's seem to be used as a return values within the module, so that would need to be changed. -- VMWare Server on kernel 2.6.27-2-generic: cannot compile vmmon module https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263837 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
