qemu-nbd fails to discard bigger chunks
This report is moved from systemd to here:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/16242
A qemu-nbd device reports that it can discard a lot of bytes:
cat /sys/block/nbd0/queue/discard_max_bytes
2199023255040
And indeed, discard works with small images:
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 /tmp/image.img 2M
$ sudo qemu-nbd --connect=/dev/nbd0 /tmp/image.img
$ sudo blkdiscard /dev/nbd0
but not for bigger ones (still smaller than discard_max_bytes):
$ qemu-img create -f qcow2 /tmp/image.img 5G
$ sudo qemu-nbd --connect=/dev/nbd0 /tmp/image.img
$ sudo blkdiscard /dev/nbd0
