Add support for DISCARD to ZVOLs.
DISCARD (REQ_DISCARD, BLKDISCARD) is useful for thin provisioning. It allows ZVOL clients to discard (unmap, trim) block ranges from a ZVOL, thus optimizing disk space usage by allowing a ZVOL to shrink instead of just grow. We can't use zfs_space() or zfs_freesp() here, since these functions only work on regular files, not volumes. Fortunately we can use the low-level function dmu_free_long_range() which does exactly what we want. Currently the discard operation is not added to the log. That's not a big deal since losing discard requests cannot result in data corruption. It would however result in disk space usage higher than it should be. Thus adding log support to zvol_discard() is probably a good idea for a future improvement. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]>
