# ArchLinux Kernel for Microsoft WSL
## Require
`# pacman -S asp pacman-contrib`
## Build Kernel
```shell
$ updpkgsums
$ makepkg -s -f
```
## Config
```
1. support network block device (nbd) `CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NBD`
2. support systemd Hash API `CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_HASH`
3. support systemd-oomd `CONFIG_PSI`
4. support qemu-nbd with io_uring `CONFIG_IO_URING`
```
## Mount microsoft VHDX
```shell
$ sudo qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 /mnt/d/test/ext4-extra.vhdx
$ sudo mount -t ext4 -o rw /dev/nbd0 /mnt/media
```
Windows Insiders preview build 20211 support `wsl.exe --mount` for mounting physical or virtual disks, see [Access Linux filesystems in Windows and WSL 2](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/access-linux-filesystems-in-windows-and-wsl-2/)
## Compress VHDX
Optimize-VHD works by trimming empty blocks, but "empty" doesn’t always mean what you might think because ext4fs is not NTFS.
So the first thing we need to do is to clean up the file system on the linux file system environment.
#### On WSL2
```shell
# create block device with vhdk, do not mount
sudo qemu-nbd --aio=io_uring -c /dev/nbd0 /mnt/d/test/ext4-extra.vhdx
# cleanup block
sudo zerofree /dev/nbd0
```
#### On Windows
```ps
# compress VHDK
PS C:\> Optimize-VHD -Path c:\test\dynamic.vhdx -Mode Full
```
## Use Systemd
```
see genie-systemd for more details
https://github.com/arkane-systems/genie
https://github.com/sorah/subsystemctl
```
see: [Systemd support is now available in WSL!](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/systemd-support-is-now-available-in-wsl)
## Mount Boot from NTFS (drvfs with fstab)
```fstab
#
D:\Develop\ArchLinux\kernel /boot drvfs rw,noatime
```
## Use custom Kernel (WSL2)
```conf
# .wslconfig
[wsl2]
kernel=D:\\Develop\\ArchLinux\\kernel\\vmlinuz-linux-wsl2
```
## screenfetch
```shell
# hsingyun @ HsingYun-PC-wsl in ~
