Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
I'm unable to mount a CIFS DFS share because the kernel doesn't have support and DRVFS is too slow to be useful. WSL2 is being sold as the easy way to interop between Linux and windows yet I can't mount one of the most basic enterprise shares. It's so incredibly frustrating I can't even being to explain it.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
I'd the kernel to be DFS enabled.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
DrvFS - too slow
Compiling my own kernel - Ew
Mounting the servers directly without DFS - also Ew
**Additional context**
Please enable the following kernel configs:
CONFIG_CIFS_UPCALL=y
CONFIG_CIFS_DFS_UPCALL=y
CONFIG_CIFS_SWN_UPCALL=y
