  72  * Discard operation is a request for the underlying block device to mark
  73  * extents to be erased. However, discard does not guarantee that the blocks
  74  * will be erased from the device - it is just a hint to the device
  75  * controller that these blocks are no longer in use. What the device
  76  * controller does with that information is left to the controller.
  77  * Discard operations are passed with sector_number as the
  78  * sector index to begin discard operations at and nr_sectors as the number of
  79  * sectors to be discarded. The specified sectors should be discarded if the
  80  * underlying block device supports trim (ATA) or unmap (SCSI) operations,
  81  * or a BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP  should be returned.
  82  * More information about trim/unmap operations at:

  87  * The backend can optionally provide three extra XenBus attributes to
  88  * further optimize the discard functionality:
  89  * 'discard-alignment' - Devices that support discard functionality may
  90  * internally allocate space in units that are bigger than the exported
  91  * logical block size. The discard-alignment parameter indicates how many bytes
  92  * the beginning of the partition is offset from the internal allocation unit's
  93  * natural alignment.
  94  * 'discard-granularity'  - Devices that support discard functionality may
  95  * internally allocate space using units that are bigger than the logical block
  96  * size. The discard-granularity parameter indicates the size of the internal
  97  * allocation unit in bytes if reported by the device. Otherwise the
  98  * discard-granularity will be set to match the device's physical block size.
  99  * 'discard-secure' - All copies of the discarded sectors (potentially created
 100  * by garbage collection) must also be erased.  To use this feature, the flag
 101  * BLKIF_DISCARD_SECURE must be set in the blkif_request_trim.
