Thanks Michal, that seems to be what I was looking for.

Hello Jeremy.
As far as I know there's no Hyper-V-specific support in SmartOS, no
"enlightened" drivers. I remember I ran OpenIndiana on Windows 10
Pro Hyper-V and the only devices I was able to use were those you
yourself found (emulated IDE hard disk and CDROM, emulated 100 Mbit
NIC, ...). Delphix is said is working on proper support for their
products (they target MS Azure), but I am not aware if they released
something already (or if they intend to open the code at some
point).
Probably the best source of information is this email thread:
https://illumos.topicbox.com/groups/developer/T8c8e2aa6b9b46c1f and
these slides:

Re: [smartos-discuss] HYPER-V

[Matthew Parsons]

Do you mean running a Hyper-V server under KVM as a guest OS? I don't
believe there's really any support, and any Hyper-V guests will be under
two layers of virtualization and will be very slow. At the very least
you'll want to switch your NIC (and probably drive controller) to VirtIO.
(Make sure you have the driver ISO in the appropriate location and
configured or have the drivers downloaded in the guest.)
