Recently I haven't been able to make the modules. Tried troubleshooting this myself, but I can't figure it out. Any guidance? I'm guessing it's not an issue with this module but rather an incompatibility with the kernel, but I'm not sure how I can make this work.

make -C vmmon-only

Looks like the issue resolved itself, not sure what happened.
