205a206 > #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(3, 13, 0) 206a208,210 > #else > VNetFilterHookFn(const struct nf_hook_ops *ops,        // IN: > #endif 255c259,263 <    transmit = (hooknum == VMW_NF_INET_POST_ROUTING); --- >    #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(3, 13, 0) >       transmit = (hooknum == VMW_NF_INET_POST_ROUTING); >    #else >       transmit = (ops->hooknum == VMW_NF_INET_POST_ROUTING); >    #endifSave that text as vmnet313.patch in your home dir.
