I'm not sure what do you mean by "translate". It passes d_type from host. And it works in guest as is. Including ldconfig and other stuff. In particular, d_type is 8 for regular files in guest, 10 for symlinks and 4 for directories. > Responsible for reading the info on the host is > hw/9pfs/virtio-9p-local.c#local_readdir_r.
