Package: lvm2 Version: 2.02.167-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
many devices use SSDs for these it makes senses to forward discard issued by the file system to the device. I suggest that in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf we set issue_discards = 1. If the file system issues discards and the hardware supports it this setting will result in the forwarding of the discards to the drive. This is what the user expects. If the file system does not issue discards or the hardware does not support it, this setting will have no effect. There is no benefit for the average user to set issue_discards = 0.
