Dave,
thanks for the review and here is the new patch. changes from the last version.
* add GPL license header
* remove stdbool.h
* complete function declaration
* add header file dependency in Makefile.
* fit VMWARE_VMSS to flag.
addition to the source file change,
* vmss file samples.
for vSphere ESX, memory dump is part of the vmss file;
for VMware Workstation, memory dump stores in a companion vmem file.
