Starting with commit 12aceb89b0bc ("eventfd: convert to f_op->read_iter()")
in 5.8-rc1, the "read" function pointer in eventfd's file_operations is
NULL, "read_iter" is available instead.
Use kernel_read() and kernel_write() instead of directly calling the
function pointers to handle this correctly. We can do that safely for
kernel 4.14 and newer (older versions have different arguments of
kernel_read() and kernel_write()).
This files in this directory and its subdirectories are the kernel module portion of the VMware Virtual Machine Monitor. In order to build, make certain the Makefile is correct, especially in whether or not your system is multi-processor and then just type make from this directory. A copy of the module will be left in driver-<kernel version>/vmmon.o (e.g. driver-up-2.0.32/vmmon.o). If you have any problems or questions, send mail to support@vmware.com
