virtiofs, available in QEMU 5.2 or newer and Linux guests 5.4 or newer, is a more modern way to pass local folders along to QEMU, as it takes advantage of the fact that the folders are on the same machine as the hypervisor. To use virtiofs, we first need to run virtiofsd, which is included with most base QEMU packages. Once we find it, we run it in the background and connect to it using some QEMU parameters, which were shamelessly taken from the official virtiofs website: https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io/howto-qemu.html To use it within the guest (you can use a different path than /mnt/shared but 'mount -t virtio shared' must be used): # mkdir /mnt/shared # mount -t virtiofs shared /mnt/shared # echo "$(uname -a)" >/mnt/shared/foo On the host: $ cat shared/foo Linux (none) 6.1.0-rc8-next-20221207 ClangBuiltLinux#2 SMP PREEMPT Wed Dec 7 14:56:03 MST 2022 aarch64 GNU/Linux This does require guest kernel support (CONFIG_VIRTIO_FS=y), otherwise it will not work inside the guest: / # mount -t virtiofs shared /mnt/shared mount: mounting shared on /mnt/shared failed: No such device Link: ClangBuiltLinux#81 Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <[email protected]>

To use virtiofs, we first need to find and run virtiofsd, which has two different implementations: a C implementation included with QEMU up until 8.0 (available on most distros) and a standalone Rust implementation available on GitLab (not packaged on many distros but easy to build and install).
