Title:
  Include Hyper-V Host to Guest File Copy Feature in Ubuntu 14.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi folks,

  We would like to include a new Hyper-V feature in Ubuntu 14.04. This
  feature allows an administrator to copy a file from host to guest
  without using the network. The feature does not restrict the contents
  or the location of data that is being copied in to the VM. The feature
  has both a driver and a daemon and the daemon acts as root while
  copying out the data.

  The full fix is about to come and is under discussion. The last update
  can be seen in the following thread

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/1/14/470

  Further information regarding use is available here:

  Please let me know if you need further information.
  Thanks,
  Abhishek
