Add vmw_pvscsi kernel module #115

Closed SuperSandro2000 closed 1 year ago

SuperSandro2000 commented 1 year ago

This is required when infecting VMs based on VMware Paravirtual SCSI on VMware vSphere ESXi hosts

Could this be the cause of the following error that I'm seeing on Oracle Cloud, with Ubunutu 22.04 (arm)?

Just ran into the same issue as @deejayem.

SuperSandro2000 commented 1 year ago

Looks like it but I don't understand why.

leo60228 commented 1 year ago

Is it possible that the vmw_pvscsi module doesn't exist on aarch64?

SuperSandro2000 commented 1 year ago

That could definitely be the case. I would suggest trying to make it conditional based on arch.

~I raised https://github.com/elitak/nixos-infect/issues/117 as I still get the error without the change from this PR, so I think it's just a coincidence.~ Edit: I didn't realise I was re-using the config that had already been generated, so my original comment was wrong. This should be fixed by https://github.com/elitak/nixos-infect/pull/118
