Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When running a container inside a WSL 2 console, GPU is not HW accelerated.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a flag --wsl smilar to --nv.

Describe alternatives you've considered
The current workaround is to add these bind mounts (I added them to /etc/singularity/singularity.conf):

# Support WSLg
bind path = /usr/lib/wsl/lib/libd3d12core.so:/.singularity.d/libs/libd3d12core.so
bind path = /usr/lib/wsl/lib/libd3d12.so:/.singularity.d/libs/libd3d12.so
bind path = /usr/lib/wsl/lib/libdxcore.so:/.singularity.d/libs/libdxcore.so
bind path = /mnt/wsl
bind path = /mnt/wslg
bind path = /usr/lib/wsl/drivers
bind path = /usr/lib/wsl/lib

Additional context
With this config, I can now run glxgears with the following output, using D3D12 driver instead of the llvmpipe software renderer:

$ singularity exec image.simg glxgears -info

Relevant links I used when setting up the WSL 2 GPU support:

Install newest GPU drivers: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/gui-apps

Resolve a problem with clock inside the WSL 2 container: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65086856/wsl2-clock-is-out-of-sync-with-windows

Install singularity from PPA https://launchpad.net/~peci1/+archive/ubuntu/singularity-ce-v4 .

Also enable Virtual Machine Platform and Hyper-V when enabling WSL: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1187339/resolving-error-0x80370114-the-operation-could-not

Thanks for opening this issue. We do have NVIDIA GPU compute support (https://sylabs.io/2022/03/wsl2-gpu/) in WSL2, and expanding WSL support to DirectX<->GL acceleration is certainly of interest.

Unless as a third party contribution, this is unlikely to make it for SingularityCE 4.1 because the roadmap for a Dec/Jan release is full vs developer time available.

We'd welcome contributions that implement (including in the new OCI-mode). Otherwise it'll be considered for a future version.

Thanks. For us, the workaround described here is enough. So I meant this issue only as a kind of kickstarter for somebody else who would like to work on it.
