how much has the source code changed between VMware's version and intel's current one? Will is be sufficient to simply add the PCI ID of the 82579LM chip to the .map file?
VMware has finally released the source code:
https://download3.vmware.com/software/open-source/VMware-esx-public-source-5.0.0-434156.tar.gz
This thing contains the compile script as well. Does anyone know how to modify intel's source code, compile it and pack it into a .tgz?
I'm wondering if I could use this source code:
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=15817&ProdId=3299&lang=eng&OSVersion=Linux*&DownloadType=%0ADrivers%0A
and this VDDK:
http://downloads.vmware.com/d/details/vddk50_os_l/dHRAYnQlQGRiZHAlJQ==#drivers_tools
to compile...
