Subject: Re: [PATCH] block: reintroduce discard_zeroes_data sysfs file and BLKDISCARDZEROES
Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2017 17:18:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170816151803.GB18932@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1502889581-19483-1-git-send-email-lczerner@redhat.com>

The patch is incorrect - just because we support zeroing using
write zero doesn't mean that any discard will zero the data.

This subtle difference was one of the main point for the changes.
