[PATCH 4/4] brd: implement secure erase and write zeroes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch implements REQ_OP_SECURE_ERASE and REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES on brd.
Write zeroes will free the pages just like discard, but the difference is
that it writes zeroes to the preceding and following page if the range is
not aligned on page boundary. Secure erase is just like write zeroes,
except that it clears the page content before freeing the page.
