Thank you for the update. I would really like TRIM support on my dm-crypt SSD and I'm not worried about the revelations that may be discernible regarding trimmed space, etc. Can you help me understand how I can pass the TRIM command through the dm-crypt layer? I've looked through the device-mapper code in the kernel and based on the implementation of TRIM in other dm clients it looks like it should be relatively straightforward to get the message sent in dm-crypt. Can you give me a couple of pointers or a brief outline of what functions would need modification? I am not concerned with making this optional at the moment since the patch would not (yet) be aimed for mainline inclusion. Please let me know if I am mistaken. I appreciate the quick response and the efforts you've put toward this so far. Thanks again. :) From Jeff Jeff Cook (801) 231-3157 jeff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx On 06/28/2011 03:19 PM, Milan Broz wrote: > On 06/28/2011 10:52 PM, Jeff Cook wrote: >> After mounting a LUKS partition on my SSD, I get a message that the >> discard mount option is ignored.
