The people who are actively using iblock_execute_write_same_direct() are doing so in the context of ESX VAAI BlockZero, together with EXTENDED_COPY and COMPARE_AND_WRITE primitives. In practice though I've not seen any users of IBLOCK WRITE_SAME for anything other than VAAI BlockZero, so just using blkdev_issue_zeroout() when available, and falling back to iblock_execute_write_same() if the WRITE_SAME buffer contains anything other than zeros should be OK. (Hook up max_write_zeroes_sectors to signal LBPRZ feature bit in target_configure_unmap_from_queue - nab) Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Martin K.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
