of the new DnD protocol is not available yet in VMware
|
|
|
|
|
products, though.
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
kernel 2.26.31, which does not bring the vmxnet3 driver yet.
|
|
|
|
|
The driver itself is the last one shipped with open-vm-tools,
|
|
|

|
- Disabled vmxnet3 building. this only did not give an error anyhow
|
|
|
|
|
as there was a typo, thus having the module already disabled for
|
|
|
|
|
quite some time.

|
|
|
distros.
|
|
|
|
|
+ vsock/vmci improvements.
|
|
|
|
|
+ bug fixes in the vmxnet / vmxnet3 drivers, and FreeBSD's
|
|
|
|
|
vmblock driver.
|
|
|
|
|
+ vmxnet3 for Linux is now upstream (as of Linux 2.6.32), and
|
|
|
|
|
will be removed from later releases of open-vm-tools.
|
|
|
|
|
+ pvscsi will be available upstream starting with Linux 2.6.33
|
|
|
|
|
and at that time will be removed from open-vm-tools.

|
dkms tree.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
- Updated to 2009.06.18
|
|
|
|
|
* Mostly a bug fix release.
|
|
|
|
|
* vmhgfs now is able to use vsock as a transport (although
|
|
|
|
|
backend support for HGFS over vsock is not yet released in
|
|
|
|
|
VMware products).
|
|
|
|
|
- Removed patch open-vm-tools-wiperPosix.patch. An alternative
|
|
|
|
|
solution was integrated upstream
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Updated to 2009.05.22
|
|
|
|
|
* Mostly a cleanup and bug fix release.
|
|
|
|
|
* Fix a build issue where a symlink attack could cause the
|
|
|
|
|
open-vm-tools build to overwrite data (by placing a symlink in
|
|
|
|
|
/tmp).
|
|
|
|
|
* Second (and last?) batch of changes to clean up duplicate files
|
|
|
|
|
in the source tree, including Solaris and FreeBSD kernel
|
|
|
|
|
modules andother module-specific shared files.
|
|
|
|
|
* Plugins now are properly built using plugins_LTLIBRARIES so
|
|
|
|
|
that "-rpath" doesn't need to be used (this would cause an
|
|
|
|
|
RPATH entry to be added to the final binary, which some tools
|
|
|
|
|
didn't like).
|
|
|
|
|
* open-vm-tools now properly detects PAM and enables PAM support
|
|
|
|
|
in the code.
|
|
|
|
|
- Removed -rpath.patch. Variation of it integrated upstream
|
|
|
|
|
- Added patch to consume (-wiperPosix.patch) the result of fgets
|
|
|
|
|
- BuildRequires pam-devel
|
|
|
|
|
- The pam miss-naming on x86_64 has been fixed upstream
|
|
|
|
|
- Add a new -rpath patch. Not everything is solved upstream.
|
|
|
|
|
- Delete arch dependent files from /usr/share (not yet needed)

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Upgrade to snapshot 2009.04.23
|
|
|
|
|
* Implemented copy & paste support for RTF data and file contents.
|
|
|
|
|
* guestd has been removed from open-vm-tools; vmtoolsd is now the only
|
|
|
|
|
option for the main tools service.
|
|
|
|
|
* Added vmblock and vmmemctl modules for Solaris (under the CDDL).
|
|
|
|
|
* vmware-user can now work with both vmblock-fuse and vmblock.
|
|
|
|
|
* Linux HGFS now has a stream-based (TCP, vsock) transport, still under
|
|
|
|
|
development.
|
|
|
|
|
* First batch of changes to cleanup duplicated files in the source tree.
|
|
|
|
|
Most duplicated files in the Linux kernel modules have been cleaned up.
|
|
|
|
|
- Extensive rewrite of the spec file:
|
|
|
|
|
* make use of the now upstream provided make install
|
|
|
|
|
* configure --no-root-privileges, to not install mount.vmhgfs as suid
|
|
|
|
|
- Add patch open-vm-tools-2009.04.23-rpath.diff: removes the rpath logic
|
|
|
|
|
which was introduced for the vmusr and vmsvc plugins. libtools is broken
|
|
|
|
|
in this respect. (patch submitted upstream for review)
|
|
|
|
|
- Extend preun section with service rename (vmware-guest -> vmtoolsd)
|
|
|
|
|
(patch provided by prusnak)
|
|
|
|
|
- forcibly activate vmtoolsd service also on update.
|
|
|
|
|
- fix up the KMP rename: for this to work we need to provide / obsolete
|
|
|
|
|
vmware-kmp and vmware-kmp-<kernelflavor>; otherwise, zypper starts pulling
|
|
|
|
|
in other kernels.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- rename vmware-KMP to vmware-guest-KMP for easier identification
|
|
|
|
|
of the use and to avoid confusion (users installing the KMP on the
|
|
|
|
|
vmware hosts) (bnc#481137)
|
|
|
|
|
- create subpackage libvmtools0

|
|
|
|
|
* The new DnD V3 protocol is now available in open-vm-tools.
|
|
|
|
|
* vmtoolsd is now preferred instead of vmware-guestd
|
|
|
|
|
- vmware-guestd will most probably be completely removed in the next release.
|
|
|
|
|
-> vmtoolsd is not yet standard enabled in openSUSE packages.
|
|
|
|
|
- Obsolete merged patches vmxnet and vmxnet3.patch.

* open-vm-tools now depend on glib 2.6.0 as a minimum requirement.
|
|
|
|
|
* Added vmxnet module for Solaris, and reworked the HGFS module so it
|
|
|
|
|
works without help from vmware-guestd.
|
|
|
|
|
* Added implementation of new DnD protocol, which adds a dependency on
|
|
|
|
|
a C++ compiler and the gtkmm library to vmware-user.
|
|
|
|
|
* The code from the "core services" has been added to open-vm-tools,
|
|
|
|
|
including a few tests. vmtoolsd + plugins are now capable of replacing
|
|
|
|
|
vmware-guestd (vmware-user still needs to have some features ported
|
|
|
|
|
over), but this code is still not to be considered as stable as the
|
|
|
|
|
legacy services, so vmware-guestd is still included.
|
|
|
|
|
* A few fixes for compatibility with non-GNU toolchains, newer Linux
|
|
|
|
|
kernels and old gcc compilers.
|
|
|

|
- Added patch open-vm-tools-2009.02.18-vmxnet.patch
|
|
|
|

- Remove noDisplay=true from vmware-user.desktop, as KDE4

- Added vmware-user-autostart-wrapper to solve bnc #474076
|
|
|
|
|
Using simple autostart technique, it can happen that the device
|
|
|
|
|
at /proc/fs/vmblock/dev is not ready when vmware-user is started
|
|
|
|
|
the autostart-wrapper takes this into account and tries for

|
|
several times.

|
not like it
|
|
|

|
Instead we package /etc/permissions.d/open-vm-tools which sets

|
|
|
|
|
- Adjust the vmware-user.desktop file to actually launch
|
|
|
|
|
vmware-user-suid-wrapper. Access to the vmblock requires su right.
|
|
|
|
|
the suid-wrapper get's the file handle, drops the suid rights
|
|
|

|
and launches vmware-user (with user privileges)

|
|
|
|
- Update to version 2009.01.21
|
|
|
|
|
* First open source release of the HGFS module for Solaris,
|
|
|
|
|
under the CDDL. Other modules are expected to be added in
|
|
|
|
|
the upcoming releases.
|
|
|
|
|
* Added an implementation of vmblock on top of FUSE;
|
|
|
|
|
vmware-user still doesn't use this module even if it is
|
|
|
|
|
available, though.
|
|
|
|
|
* Linux modules now add the "supported" tag used by Novell in
|
|
|
|
|
their SLES 10 SP2 release when loading modules.
|
|
|
|
|
* Fix compilation of modules in newer Linux kernels which
|
|
|
|
|
don't include $(LINUXINCLUDE) in the compiler flags anymore.
|
|
|
|
|
- Added Requires: kernel-%1 to preamble, as rpmlint said it would
|
|
|
|
|
be policy to require kenrel-$favour from the kmp
|
|
|
|
|
- marked config files in /etc as %config (rpmlint)

Thu Dec 25 16:37:00 CEST 2008 - dominique@leuenberger.net
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update to version 2008.12.23
|
|
|
|
|
* Lots of makefile cleanup with the switch to using libtool archives.
|
|
|
|
|
* Automatically disable Unity if multimon support is disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
* Actually build the pvscsi modules.
|
|
|
|
|
* First bits of the "Core Service" project are starting to show up; the
|
|
|
|
|
base "vmtools" library was added to the package. It currently is mostly
|
|
|
|
|
a collection of the existing libraries already shipped with open-vm-tools,
|
|
|
|
|
plus some extra functionality build on top of glib. Currently no other
|
|
|
|
|
code in open-vm-tools uses it, so it's optional.
|
|
|
|
|
* The HGFS driver was fixed for the Linux 2.6.28 kernel.
|
|
|

Wed Nov 19 19:04:00 CEST 2008 - dominique@leuenberger.net
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Updated to version 2008.11.19
|
|
|
|
|
* The pvscsi Linux kernel module has been added (for kernels >= 2.6.8).
|
|
|
|
|
It provides access to VMware's new paravirtualized SCSI device.
|
|
|
|
|
* The HGFS driver and user-level code has seen a lot of refactoring to
|
|
|
|
|
enable more consistent name escaping. The FreeBSD driver now supports
|
|
|
|
|
symlinks.
|
|
|
|
|
* The Linux module makefiles now support exporting symbol version files,
|
|
|
|
|
allowing modules with dependencies (such as vsock, which depends on vmci)
|
|
|
|
|
to correctly build and load on Linux >= 2.6.26 with CONFIG_MODVERSIONS.
|
|
|
|
|
* Rudimentary support for dkms.
|
|
|
|
|
* Assortment of bug fixes.

Wed Oct 15 20:41:00 CEST 2008 - dominique@leuenberger.net
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Updated to version 2008.10.10
|
|
|
|
|
* The vmxnet3 Linux kernel module has been added. This module provides
|
|
|
|
|
better network performance for the guest. The corresponding virtual
|
|
|
|
|
hardware is available beginning with Workstation 6.5, though
|
|
|
|
|
performance benefits are unlikely to be realized until a later VMware
|
|
|
|
|
product release. The module should work for all kernels beginning with
|
|
|
|
|
2.6.
|
|
|
|
|
* The open-vm-tools no longer depend on libproc-dev. Several people
|
|
|
|
|
reported this issue (Sourceforge bug 1960947).
|
|
|
|
|
* Added a command line argument to skip privileged operations during
|
|
|
|
|
make install (--without-root-privileges).
|
|
|
|
|
* Guestd now supports backwards time synchronization, though the
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding hypervisor-side changes are not yet part of any shipping
|
|
|
|
|
VMware products.
|
|
|
|
|
* Assortment of bug fixes.

|
|
|
- updated to 2008.08.08
|
|
|
|
|
* Unity for X11 guests has been added. Unity is implemented within
|
|
|
|
|
vmware-user and requires no additional setup beyond setting up the
|
|
|
|
|
vmware-user application itself. Unity should work with Fusion 1.x
|
|
|
|
|
releases as well as with the upcoming Workstation 6.5 release. Our
|
|
|
|
|
in-house testing was with Linux guests, and they should mostly work.
|
|
|
|
|
There is very little standing in the way of FreeBSD/Solaris support,
|
|
|
|
|
though we've never built or tested Unity for those platforms.
|
|
|
|
|
* The VMCI Linux kernel module has been added. This module provides
|
|
|
|
|
high-speed datagram and socket interfaces for guest<->guest and
|
|
|
|
|
host<->guest communication. It should work for all kernels beginning
|
|
|
|
|
with 2.4, and for VMware products beginning with Workstation 6.5.
|
|
|
|
|
* The VMCI sockets Linux kernel module has been added. It provides
|
|
|
|
|
both datagram and stream socket interfaces to userlevel for use with
|
|
|
|
|
VMCI. As with VMCI, it should work for kernels 2.4 or later, and for
|
|
|
|
|
VMware products beginning with Workstation 6.5.
|
|
|
|
|
* The command-line Toolbox has been added. This application provides
|
|
|
|
|
the same functionality as the GTK Toolbox, but with a scriptable
|
|
|
|
|
command-line interface. It also has some statistic retrieval commands
|
|
|
|
|
that aren't found in the GTK Toolbox.
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixed compilation of vmsync and vmmemctl Linux kernel modules on
|
|
|
|
|
2.6.26. Thanks to Pavol Rusnak for the report (Sourceforge bug 2032683).
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixed an issue with guestd's nicInfo updating mechanism. Thanks to
|
|
|
|
|
Jason Lunz for the patch (not tracked on Sourceforge).
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixed handling of $(DESTDIR) in automake. Thanks to Mike Auty for
|
|
|
|
|
the patch (Sourceforge bug 2018802).
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixed build of vmware-user using gtk 1.2. Thanks to Stephen Duncan
|
|
|
|
|
for the report (Sourceforge bug 2014338).
|
|
|
|
|
* Fixed compilation of lib/guestApp when using --without-x. Thanks to

|
Martin Preishuber for the report (Sourceforge bug 2013568).
