VirtualBox Guest Shared Folder Support Coming To The Mainline Linux v5.4 Kernel

The mainline Linux kernel continues to see better support for Oracle VM VirtualBox with more of the guest drivers reaching the mainline kernel to provide a vastly better out-of-the-box experience.

Red Hat's Hans de Goede has been working to nurse many of the open-source VirtualBox drivers into the mainline kernel. The most recent is getting the "VBOXSF" driver queued into Greg KH's staging-linus branch. The VBOXSF driver provides VirtualBox guest shared folder support.
