Re: [PATCH v9] virtio_blk: add discard and write zeroes support

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

 



Hi Daniel,

Other than crosvm, is there any version of qemu (e.g., repositories developed in
progress on github) where I can try with this feature?

Thank you very much!
