(cc'ing mkp) One thing that seemed odd was your adjustment for discard_alignment (in patch 1/2). I need to better understand how discard_alignment (an offset despite the name not saying as much) relates to alignment_offset. Could just be that once a partition tool, or lvm, etc account for alignment_offset (which they do now) that discard_alignment is automagically accounted for as a side-effect? (I haven't actually seen discard_alignment != 0 in the wild) Mike -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
