Fixed
WSL
- Allow processes to run without an active terminal. [GH 709, 1007, 1511, 2252, 2391, et al.]
- Better support of CLONE_VFORK and CLONE_VM. [GH 1878, 2615]
- Skip TDI filter drivers for WSL networking operations. [GH 1554]
- DrvFs creates NT symlinks when certain conditions are met. [GH 353, 1475, 2602]
- The link target must be relative, must not cross any mount points or symlinks, and must exist.
- The user must have SE_CREATE_SYMBOLIC_LINK_PRIVILEGE (this normally requires you to launch wsl.exe elevated), unless Developer Mode is turned on.
- In all other situations, DrvFs still creates WSL symlinks.
- Allow running elevated and non-elevated WSL instances simultaneously.
- Support /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope
- Add wslpath to do WSL<->Windows path conversions. [GH 522, 1243, 1834, 2327, et al.]
wslpath usage:
-a force result to absolute path format
-u translate from a Windows path to a WSL path (default)
-w translate from a WSL path to a Windows path
-m translate from a WSL path to a Windows path, with ‘/’ instead of ‘\\’
EX: wslpath ‘c:\users’
Console
