在 18.04 上安装 VMware：无法构建 vmmon

我正在尝试按照以下说明安装 VMwarehttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Player

我收到一个错误，提示我查看日志文件，其中包含：

Extracting the vmmon source from "/usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmmon.tar".
Successfully extracted the vmmon source.
Building module with command "/usr/bin/make -j4 -C /tmp/modconfig-GoVdrH/vmmon-only auto-build HEADER_DIR=/lib/modules/4.15.0-22-generic/build/include CC=/usr/bin/gcc IS_GCC_3=no"
Failed to build vmmon.  Failed to execute the build command.

为了弄清楚到底出了什么问题，我运行了vmware-modconfig --console --install-all命令行，结果显示了以下错误：

./arch/x86/include/asm/processor-flags.h:39:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition

如何修复它，或者让隐式函数声明和不兼容的指针类型不被视为错误？
或者有没有更简单的方法在 18.04 上安装最新的 VMware？

注意：来自的错误不同Ubuntu 16.04 上的 VMWare Workstation Pro 12 无法编译 vmmon

答案1

我找到了一个解决方案并创建了一个基于的脚本文件mkucebek 的 github 源代码。

您必须创建一个包含此内容的文件，并在每次需要时运行它（通常是在安装新内核时）：

#!/bin/bash
VMWARE_VERSION=workstation-12.5.9
TMP_FOLDER=/tmp/patch-vmware
rm -fdr $TMP_FOLDER
mkdir -p $TMP_FOLDER
cd $TMP_FOLDER
git clone https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules.git
cd $TMP_FOLDER/vmware-host-modules
git checkout $VMWARE_VERSION
git fetch
make
sudo make install
sudo rm /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libz.so.1/libz.so.1
sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 
/usr/lib/vmware/lib/libz.so.1/libz.so.1
sudo /etc/init.d/vmware restart

然后，您只需启动 VMware Workstation，无需构建模块。

安装最新版本14.1.2。该错误已修复。请参阅这里。这里是下载链接。

答案3

#!/bin/bash
VMWARE_VERSION=`vmware-installer -l |grep workstat|awk '{print $2}' |awk 'BEGIN {FS="."}{print "workstation-"$1"."$2"."$3}'`
echo $VMWARE_VERSION
TMP_FOLDER=/tmp/patch-vmware
rm -fdr $TMP_FOLDER
mkdir -p $TMP_FOLDER
cd $TMP_FOLDER
git clone https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules.git
cd $TMP_FOLDER/vmware-host-modules
git checkout $VMWARE_VERSION
git fetch
make
sudo make install
sudo rm /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libz.so.1/libz.so.1
sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 
/usr/lib/vmware/lib/libz.so.1/libz.so.1
sudo /etc/init.d/vmware restart

这适用于我的 Fedora 30 和 Workstation 15.1.0
