VirtualBox 6.0.x has a new feature where the guest kernel driver passes info about the origin of the request (e.g. userspace or kernelspace) to the hypervisor. If we do not pass this information then when running the 6.0.x userspace guest-additions tools on a 6.0.x host, some requests will get denied with a VERR_VERSION_MISMATCH error, breaking vboxservice.service and the mounting of shared folders marked to be auto-mounted. This commit implements passing the requestor info to the host, fixing this. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
