Since commit 11c5ad0ec441 ("eventpoll: switch to ->poll_mask") in
v4.18-rc1, eventpoll switched from ->poll() to ->poll_mask(). Rather than
calling the callback directly (which would result in null pointer
dereference), use vfs_poll() wrapper. As this wrapper is only available
since 4.18-rc1 cycle as well, provide a copy to use when building against
older kernels.
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).
