36 * Recognised only if "feature-barrier" is present in backend xenbus info.
37 * The "feature_barrier" node contains a boolean indicating whether barrier
38 * requests are likely to succeed or fail. Either way, a barrier request
39 * may fail at any time with BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP if it is unsupported by
40 * the underlying block-device hardware. The boolean simply indicates whether
41 * or not it is worthwhile for the frontend to attempt barrier requests.
42 * If a backend does not recognise BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER, it should *not*
43 * create the "feature-barrier" node!

48 * Recognised if "feature-flush-cache" is present in backend xenbus
49 * info. A flush will ask the underlying storage hardware to flush its
50 * non-volatile caches as appropriate. The "feature-flush-cache" node
51 * contains a boolean indicating whether flush requests are likely to
52 * succeed or fail. Either way, a flush request may fail at any time
53 * with BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP if it is unsupported by the underlying
54 * block-device hardware. The boolean simply indicates whether or not it
55 * is worthwhile for the frontend to attempt flushes. If a backend does
56 * not recognise BLKIF_OP_WRITE_FLUSH_CACHE, it should *not* create the
57 * "feature-flush-cache" node!
59 #define BLKIF_OP_FLUSH_DISKCACHE 3
62 * Recognised only if "feature-discard" is present in backend xenbus info.
63 * The "feature-discard" node contains a boolean indicating whether trim
64 * (ATA) or unmap (SCSI) - conviently called discard requests are likely
65 * to succeed or fail. Either way, a discard request
66 * may fail at any time with BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP if it is unsupported by
67 * the underlying block-device hardware. The boolean simply indicates whether
68 * or not it is worthwhile for the frontend to attempt discard requests.
69 * If a backend does not recognise BLKIF_OP_DISCARD, it should *not*
70 * create the "feature-discard" node!
72 * Discard operation is a request for the underlying block device to mark
73 * extents to be erased. However, discard does not guarantee that the blocks
74 * will be erased from the device - it is just a hint to the device
75 * controller that these blocks are no longer in use. What the device
76 * controller does with that information is left to the controller.
77 * Discard operations are passed with sector_number as the
78 * sector index to begin discard operations at and nr_sectors as the number of
79 * sectors to be discarded. The specified sectors should be discarded if the
80 * underlying block device supports trim (ATA) or unmap (SCSI) operations,
81 * or a BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP should be returned.
82 * More information about trim/unmap operations at:
83 * http://t13.org/Documents/UploadedDocuments/docs2008/

87 * The backend can optionally provide three extra XenBus attributes to
88 * further optimize the discard functionality:
89 * 'discard-aligment' - Devices that support discard functionality may
90 * internally allocate space in units that are bigger than the exported
91 * logical block size. The discard-alignment parameter indicates how many bytes
92 * the beginning of the partition is offset from the internal allocation unit's
94 * 'discard-granularity' - Devices that support discard functionality may
95 * internally allocate space using units that are bigger than the logical block
96 * size. The discard-granularity parameter indicates the size of the internal
97 * allocation unit in bytes if reported by the device. Otherwise the
98 * discard-granularity will be set to match the device's physical block size.
99 * 'discard-secure' - All copies of the discarded sectors (potentially created
100 * by garbage collection) must also be erased. To use this feature, the flag
101 * BLKIF_DISCARD_SECURE must be set in the blkif_request_trim.
103 #define BLKIF_OP_DISCARD 5
106 * Recognized if "feature-max-indirect-segments" in present in the backend
107 * xenbus info. The "feature-max-indirect-segments" node contains the maximum
108 * number of segments allowed by the backend per request. If the node is
109 * present, the frontend might use blkif_request_indirect structs in order to
110 * issue requests with more than BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST (11). The
111 * maximum number of indirect segments is fixed by the backend, but the
112 * frontend can issue requests with any number of indirect segments as long as
113 * it's less than the number provided by the backend. The indirect_grefs field
114 * in blkif_request_indirect should be filled by the frontend with the
115 * grant references of the pages that are holding the indirect segments.
116 * This pages are filled with an array of blkif_request_segment_aligned
117 * that hold the information about the segments. The number of indirect
118 * pages to use is determined by the maximum number of segments
119 * a indirect request contains. Every indirect page can contain a maximum
120 * of 512 segments (PAGE_SIZE/sizeof(blkif_request_segment_aligned)),
121 * so to calculate the number of indirect pages to use we have to do
122 * ceil(indirect_segments/512).
124 * If a backend does not recognize BLKIF_OP_INDIRECT, it should *not*
125 * create the "feature-max-indirect-segments" node!
127 #define BLKIF_OP_INDIRECT 6
130 * Maximum scatter/gather segments per request.
131 * This is carefully chosen so that sizeof(struct blkif_ring) <= PAGE_SIZE.
132 * NB. This could be 12 if the ring indexes weren't stored in the same page.
