Hi,

Something interesting to note:

When I have an Intel 510 SSD plugged into an mpt2sas board, discard (TRIM) 
is not supported:

[   16.483409] EXT4-fs (sda2): re-mounted. Opts: discard
[   17.814743] EXT4-fs warning (device sda2): 
release_blocks_on_commit:2679: discard not supported, disabling

With a regular SATA port or an (PCI-e 2.0 x1 card), it works but with the 
overhead, PCI-e x1 seems to peak around 400-430MiB/s for reads, whereas 
with an X8 SAS controller I see 480-495MiB/s as the benchmarks show on 
various websites, ah well, its one thing or the other.

Justin.

Hi,

Is there anyway to allow pass through for TRIM via mp2sas or is it 
strictly for SATA controllers only?

Justin.
