Re:VMWare Taken to Court Over GPL Violation by DannyBee on Thursday March 05, 2015 @05:27PM (#9154309)
"ut the way this happens is through a well-defined API provided by (proprietary) vmkernel called vmkapi. "

From my understanding, the problem is that vmkernel directly includes linux kernel GPL code, but they do not open source it.

If that's the case, this is 100% clear cut.

IE they aren't obeying their own interface, and have shoved GPL code in the wrong side of it.
