From: Hellmuth Michaelis To: bug-followup@freebsd.org Cc: Remko Lodder Subject: Re: ports/111480: emulators/vmware3 port crashes under FreeBSD 6.2 Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2007 14:31:46 +0200 Hi, over the weekend i narrowed the cause of this down: vmware3 under =46reeBSD stable as of March 4th runs but on FreeBSD stable as of March 5th does not run and crashes. =46urther investigation showed that the cause is the file=20 /usr/src/sys/net/if_tap.c: with file file version $FreeBSD: src/sys/net/if_tap.c,v 1.55.2.8 2007/02/27 13:27:06 bms Exp $ vmware runs, whereas with file versions=20 $FreeBSD: src/sys/net/if_tap.c,v 1.55.2.9 2007/03/04 14:34:41 bms Exp $ and $FreeBSD: src/sys/net/if_tap.c,v 1.55.2.10 2007/04/01 22:02:30 bms Exp $ it crashes as described. I played a bit with the syctls introduced in the newer versions of if_tap but without any success regarding my problem. Btw: the error message in the vmware logfile is: Apr 23 13:59:05: VMX|Vnet_SetIFFlags ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl for device Apr 23 13:59:05: VMX|NOT_IMPLEMENTED F(717):1423 Best regards, Hellmuth Michaelis =2D-=20 Hellmuth Michaelis fon +49 (0)40 - 389071-26 Gesch=E4ftsf=FChrer mobil +49 (0)160 - 96455696 secion GmbH fax +49 (0)40 - 389071-19 B=FClowstra=DFe 20 mail hm@secion.de 22763 Hamburg www http://www.secion.de/ Die secion GmbH ist eingetragen beim Amtsgericht Hamburg HRB 91079 Gesch=E4ftsf=FChrer sind Marcus Henschel und Hellmuth Michaelis
