Created attachment 415546 [details, diff] 304-hardened.patch I have updated the patch, now vmware-modules compiles fine. As I don't use pax_kernel, can someone try if the patch works?
I'm on the hardened profile, but my setup uses aufs now and I haven't gotten the aufs patches to work with pax yet ...
