I have an older totally different SSD for testing that seems to support discard: # hdparm -I /dev/sdc | grep TRIM * Data Set Management TRIM supported (limit 8 blocks) * Deterministic read ZEROs after TRIM As I test, I created two f2fs partitions on this different SSD: 1) /dev/sdc2 normal F2FS 2) /dev/sdc3 encrypted with LUKS (dm-crypt) then formatted to F2FS Results: 1) Regular F2FS # fstrim -v /regular /regular: 0 B (0 bytes) trimmed 2) Encrypted F2FS # fstrim -v /encrypted fstrim: /encrypted: the discard operation is not supported Can we conclude that the device mapper is some how spoofing fstrim into thinking the device doesn't support trim? Happy to hear your thoughts. _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list Linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
