CUDA-ready Archlinux for WSL2

This is a brief guide on how to install Archlinux as a WSL2 distribution and how to set up CUDA afterwards.

As of late, Window's WSL2 offers GPU passthrough from WSL2/Linux to Windows for NVidia graphics cards which allows to run (and develop) CUDA-based applications on the WSL2/Linux-side with almost native performance. Unfortunately, the official guides for the CUDA setup for WSL2/Linux are predominantly Ubuntu-specific. Here's to you, Arch!

1. Install Archlinux

  1. Make sure that your Windows meets the dependencies and that your WSL2 is set up. See these instructions.

Archlinux is not among the default distributions available for WSL2. We'll install it from a tarball instead, a functionality offered natively by the WSL.

Effective Modern CMake

Getting Started

For a brief user-level introduction to CMake, watch C++ Weekly, Episode 78, Intro to CMake by Jason Turner. LLVM’s CMake Primer provides a good high-level introduction to the CMake syntax. Go read it now.

After that, watch Mathieu Ropert’s CppCon 2017 talk Using Modern CMake Patterns to Enforce a Good Modular Design (slides). It provides a thorough explanation of what modern CMake is and why it is so much better than “old school” CMake. The modular design ideas in this talk are based on the book [Large-Scale C++ Software Design](https://www.amazon.de/Large-Scale-Soft
