Actually WSL2 might be a better target as it would enable some tweaking of the mapping. Did anyone have success implementing virtio communication through hyperv and mount e.g. a custom p9fs. E.g. to support ownership and attributes. What would be the best p9fs server to start with? I had limited success with p9fs on winfsp from cygwin some time ago due to the problems of mapping effective access rights correctly.

I found https://github.com/pfpacket/rust-9p to be reasonably good and easy to hack on. My fork (https://github.com/piscisaureus/rust-9p) has some patches to improve support for the 9P2000.W dialect used by Windows.
