I have removed the patch from comment #4. Running with the vmhgfs driver from the 9.10.2 code can result in data corruption. The backport of the driver from 10.0.0 to 9.10.3 resolves the data corruption issue as well as addressing the kernel compilation failures for 4.1 and 4.2 kernels.
As noted in comment #7, the 9.10.3 code has been tested by VMWare against 15.10 with the 4.2.0-16 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/1500581 Title: open-vm-tools-dkms fails to build on kernel 4.2 (Wily Werewolf) [error: implicit declaration of function ‘nd_set_link’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1500581/+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
