Kernel 6.3-rc1 is out, and details are here:   https://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/2303.0/04362.html

The latest (patched) VMware 17.0.1 is OK, but NVIDIA 530.30.02 fails to compile:

There is a kernel 6.3 patch for an earlier driver version available, and this can be modified for the latest driver version:   https://gist.github.com/joanbm/d10e9cbbbb8e245b6e7e27b2db338faf

I have done this, and the driver now compiles successfully, and appears to load/run OK….
