Here's an edited summary of the reply I got from the "please contact our
firmware engineers at xxx@xxx" address; turns out there's no engineers
there either, but at least we finally have a sane non-formletter reply
which *for the first time* states that Samsung is aware of the issue and
is working on a fix at the firmware level. Good news for everyone:
"We are just the SSD tech support. We are not the FW engineers. They are
in Korea and have been aware of the issue since it first started being
reported online.
The latest stable Linux Kernal 4.0.5 successfully blacklists the
affected drive(s) from queued TRIM. Linux can still use Sequential
TRIM, so you’re not losing out on anything.
We see that you are well aware that Marc Carino and Martin K. Petersen
are in contact with Samsung on how to resolve the issue since it
started.
All we can say to users at this moment is that Linux is the only
operating system that has this issue with the Queued TRIM. Linux is open
source and can be modified by anyone, as such we do not support the OS.
We recommend updating to the new kernel, as we have seen that other
users have done so and it alleviated their issue(s)."
