From 5cb8850c9c4a7605f74f5c9c7ecadd0b02e87a25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kent Overstreet Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2014 13:53:46 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] block: Explicitly handle discard/write same segments Immutable biovecs changed the way biovecs are interpreted - drivers no longer use bi_vcnt, they have to go by bi_iter.bi_size (to allow for using part of an existing segment without modifying it). This breaks with discards and write_same bios, since for those bi_size has nothing to do with segments in the biovec. So for now, we need a fairly gross hack - we fortunately know that there will never be more than one segment for the entire request, so we can special case discard/write_same.
