Subject: [Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 2/2] dm-ploop: set max discard segments to one
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2026 18:36:19 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109153619.277888-3-andrey.zhadchenko@virtuozzo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109153619.277888-1-andrey.zhadchenko@virtuozzo.com>

Discard is a special type of request that can have non-contiguous
bios.
Imagine we have a request with starting sector 0 and length 1024,
so read or write means [0, 1024) range in the file. For discard this
request can have 2 bios [0, 512) and [1024, 1536), but we always
discarded [0, 1024).
Set max_discard_segments to 1 to avoid such merges.

https://virtuozzo.atlassian.net/browse/VSTOR-154159
Fixes: 6ddad5a4d226 ("dm-ploop: Add ploop target driver")
Feature: dm-ploop: ploop target driver
