virtio-vsock support has been added to the nfs-ganesha NFS server. I'm currently working on upstreaming virtio-vsock into Linux and QEMU. I also have patches for the Linux NFS client and server.
Users wishing to share a file system with the guest will need to configure the NFS server. Perhaps libvirt could handle that given that it already has <filesystem> syntax.
The basic task is setting up either the kernel nfsd or nfs-ganesha for the VM to access the NFS export(s). When the VM is destroy the NFS server can be shut down.
For anyone interested in how configuring a running ganesha instance works in practice, here is how it is done by the glusterfs Manila driver: https://github.com/openstack/manila/blob/master/manila/share/drivers/ganesha... (The short answer is "DBUS" :-)) John
