| [https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io/ VirtioFS] is a filesystem that allows mounting host path inside a VM with minimal performance overhead. | | #REDIRECT [[Libvirt#File_sharing_via_virtiofs_mount]] |
| | |
| == Host Setup ==
| |
| In order to use VirtioFS NixOS needs virtiofsd package:
| |
| virtualisation.libvirtd.qemu.vhostUserPackages = [ pkgs.virtiofsd ];
| |
| | |
| == VM Setup ==
| |
| VirtioFS directories can be mounted directly in NixOS via the standard fileSystems option.
| |
| | |
| Assuming you setup a VirtioFS called VMShare in your VM manager, like [[libvirt]], you can mount it by adding the following inside your VM.
| |
| | |
| fileSystems."/mnt/VMShare" = {
| |
| device = "VMShare";
| |
| fsType = "virtiofs";
| |
| options = [
| |
| "nofail"
| |
| "x-systemd.automount"
| |
| ];
| |
| };
