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.
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).
