I'm using a iscsi solaris target, with scsi UNMAP support. 
Drives also support scsi unmap in raid (ocz talos hdd).
I'm using direct lun access from host to guest.


But my question was, which block device inside guests have trim or scsi unmap implemention ?

iscsi supports it too but it requires that your iscsi target supports 
these opcodes, and that the filesystem/storage behind it supports it 
too. 
TGTD with EXT4 and a suitable storage device should do the trick.
