Subject: [117/165] ext4: stop issuing discards if not supported by device
Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2010 10:15:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100730171510.200729949@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100730171550.GA1299@kroah.com
2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
commit a30eec2a8650a77f754e84b2e15f062fe652baa7 upstream (as of v2.6.34-git13)
Turn off issuance of discard requests if the device does
not support it - similar to the action we take for barriers.
This will save a little computation time if a non-discardable
device is mounted with -o discard, and also makes it obvious
that it's not doing what was asked at mount time ...
