Unable to use macvlan on Ubuntu created with WSL2

Repro Steps

[wsl2]
networkingMode=bridged
vmSwitch=WSLBridge

I used this configuration and then created an Ubuntu for WSL2 and installed the docker engine on the Ubuntu and then created the macvlan NIC and I found that when I configured this NIC to the container, the container could not access

I actually use Hyper-V to create Ubuntu to get macvlan working. Two points are needed: 1. Hyper-V with mac address spoofing turned on 2. Ubuntu with network mixing turned on. But the problem with Ubuntu created by WSL2 is that there is no place to turn on mac address spoofing in WSL2, which is the key to macvlan not working!

Expected Behavior

I can access this container using the IP, just like on the real Ubuntu

Actual Behavior

The container cannot be accessed
