Subject: Quick EXT4 discard question
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2011 17:45:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1303433101.1389.132.camel@keith-laptop> (raw)

Hello,
  I am using some Intel SSD drives with 2.6.38.2. 


/proc/scsi/scsi identifies them as: 

"
Host: scsi4 Channel: 00 Id: 04 Lun: 00
  Vendor: ATA      Model: INTEL SSDSA2M080 Rev: 02M3
  Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI  SCSI revision: 05
"

Sometimes I am see the following messages that indicate discard is
disabled during runtime:  

Relevant dmesg:

...
EXT4-fs (sdw): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: nobarrier,discard
EXT4...... 

.... (some time later) 

EXT4-fs warning (device sdw): release_blocks_on_commit:2672: discard not supported, disabling
EXT4-fs warning (device sds): release_blocks_on_commit:2672: discard not supported, disabling
EXT4-fs warning (device sdt): release_blocks_on_commit:2672: discard not supported, disabling
EXT4-fs warning (device sdu): release_blocks_on_commit:2672: discard not supported, disabling
EXT4-fs warning (device sdv): release_blocks_on_commit:2672: discard not supported, disabling

I am new to SSDs and discard is there something else I need to do to
make these drives work as expected? 


Thanks,
  Keith Mannthey
