-[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"
-      ];
-    };
