Bug 205643: emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions : not patched for 11.0-CURRENT
vm_pageout_grow_cache replaced with vm_page_reclaim_contig
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=205643



--- Description ---
While emulators/virtualbox-ose has a patch that was updated for using
vm_page_reclaim_contig instead of vm_pageout_grow_cache when __FreeBSD_version
>= 1100092, emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions does not.

pkg install virtualbox-ose-additions results in a vboxguest.ko that will not
load for __FreeBSD_version >= 1100092 because of the old vm_pageout_grow_cache
reference.

Attempting to portmaster emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions results in:

. .
./VirtualBox-4.3.34/src/VBox/Runtime/r0drv/freebsd/memobj-r0drv-freebsd.c:231:9
:
error: 
      implicit declaration of function 'vm_pageout_grow_cache' is invalid in
C99
      [-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
	vm_pageout_grow_cache(cTries, 0, VmPhysAddrHigh);

which stops the build. This is from there being no patch for
emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions's memobj-r0drv-freebsd.c source.

I found no UPDATING material about the issues (11.0-CURRENT or ports).
