I am actually having a hard time getting this to work with a CentOS VM..
I built and installed 9p-sac (Stand alone kernel module) and now
[root@thirdspotcloud t2]# cat /proc/filesystems | grep 9p
nodev 9p
[root@thirdspotcloud t2]# lsmod | grep 9p
9p 16414 0
9pnet 39112 1 9p
[root@thirdspotcloud t2]#
but when I run: mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio testmount /opt/workspace/ -oversion=9p2000.L
I get:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on ecp,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
(for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might
need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
I used virt-manager to generate a config:
<filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'>
<driver type='path' wrpolicy='immediate'/>
<source dir='/var/lib/libvirt/images/testfolder'/>
<target dir='testmount'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x08' function='0x0'/>
</filesystem>
Any ideas?

filesystems:

This appears to be the closest to a VirtualBox shared drive.
While 9p is probably the slickest approach, NFS is probably the most

universally supported. There are also other shared filesystems like
glusterfs that might be easier to manage than NFS. But yeah, the
concept of having the guest share a portion of the filesystem living in
the host is still a topic for current development efforts.
