2011-05-24	xfs: add online discard support	Christoph Hellwig	1	-0/+2
	Now that we have reliably tracking of deleted extents in a transaction we can easily implement "online" discard support which calls blkdev_issue_discard once a transaction commits. The actual discard is a two stage operation as we first have to mark the busy extent as not available for reuse before we can start the actual discard. Note that we don't bother supporting discard for the non-delaylog mode. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
2011-01-11	xfs: add FITRIM support	Christoph Hellwig	1	-0/+8
	Allow manual discards from userspace using the FITRIM ioctl. This is not intended to be run during normal workloads, as the freepsace btree walks can cause large performance degradation.
