The following patch I found upstream is supposed to deal with this issue:

It would have to be tested and adapted to the ebuild.



Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Harris Landgarten 2011-01-06 00:53:03 UTC
These changes allowed compile to complete using ebuild:

fixed in vmware overlay. thanks.

why didn't you labeled this ebuild as r1?

Works fine here

You need to enable CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL

> why didn't you labeled this ebuild as r1?
Because those who is running stable (2.6.36) do not need to reinstall.

Comment 9 Michael Niggli 2011-01-31 11:04:30 UTC
I had the same issue as DaggyStyle. After adding epatch lines for sk_sleep.patch and iommu_map.patch to the ebuild, it compiled on ~amd64 with tuxonice-sources-2.6.37. :-)
Comment 10 DaggyStyle 2011-01-31 16:19:26 UTC
solved here too
Comment 11 Andrey Vul 2011-03-14 13:38:06 UTC
With 2.6.33.7-rt30, vmnet still won't compile after patching:
