+ * Recognised only if "feature-discard" is present in backend xenbus info.
+ * The "feature-discard" node contains a boolean indicating whether trim
+ * (ATA) or unmap (SCSI) - conviently called discard requests are likely
+ * to succeed or fail. Either way, a discard request
+ * may fail at any time with BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP if it is unsupported by
+ * the underlying block-device hardware. The boolean simply indicates whether
+ * or not it is worthwhile for the frontend to attempt discard requests.
+ * If a backend does not recognise BLKIF_OP_DISCARD, it should *not*
+ * create the "feature-discard" node!
+ *
+ * Discard operation is a request for the underlying block device to mark
+ * extents to be erased. However, discard does not guarantee that the blocks
+ * will be erased from the device - it is just a hint to the device
+ * controller that these blocks are no longer in use. What the device
+ * controller does with that information is left to the controller.
+ * Discard operations are passed with sector_number as the
+ * sector index to begin discard operations at and nr_sectors as the number of
+ * sectors to be discarded. The specified sectors should be discarded if the
+ * underlying block device supports trim (ATA) or unmap (SCSI) operations,
+ * or a BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP should be returned.
+ * More information about trim/unmap operations at:
