Subject:   vmware on current: Could not get addres for /dev/vmnet1
Message-ID:  <20011019083859.1D3D237B408@hub.freebsd.org>

This is -current from yesterday, with the recent patches to ansi.h to
get it to compile, and vmware2 with kse patches build today.

I did a

	rm /compat/linux/dev/vmnet1;ln -s /dev/vmnet1 /compat/linux/dev 

(see kse-patches announcement) and this seems to be working.

I tried bridged (using host-only conf. under vmware) and host-only
configuration. 

The error 

	Could not get address for /dev/vmnet1: argument is invalid
	Failed to configure ethernet0

is all I get... (this is the host-only case, for bridged it says
something like could not get bridgin status of /dev/vmnet1...)

ifconfig / ping for host-only configuration:

mp# ifconfig vmnet1
vmnet1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.254.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.254.255
        inet6 fe80::2bd:ccff:fe07:1%vmnet1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5 
        ether 00:bd:cc:07:00:01 
mp# ping 192.168.254.1
PING 192.168.254.1 (192.168.254.1): 56 data bytes

64 bytes from 192.168.254.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.070 ms

In the logs for host-only:

Oct 19 10:22:28 mp /boot/kernel/kernel: /dev/vmmon: Vmx86_DestroyVM: unlocked pages: 0, unlocked dirty pages: 0
Oct 19 10:26:04 mp /boot/kernel/kernel: /dev/vmmon: Vmx86_DestroyVM: unlocked pages: 0, unlocked dirty pages: 0

with bridged I get:

Oct 19 09:38:41 mp /boot/kernel/kernel: /dev/vmmon: Vmx86_DestroyVM: unlocked pages: 0, unlocked dirty pages: 0
Oct 19 09:39:40 mp /boot/kernel/kernel: linux: 'ioctl' fd=13, cmd=0x8940 ('\x89',64) not implemented
Oct 19 09:39:44 mp /boot/kernel/kernel: /dev/vmmon: Vmx86_DestroyVM: unlocked pages: 0, unlocked dirty pages: 0


Any ideas?


Cheers, mathias
