From bdca3c87fb7ad1cc61d231d37eb0d8f90d001e0c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Callahan Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2018 04:47:40 -0700 Subject: block: Track DISCARD statistics and output them in stat and diskstat Add tracking of REQ_OP_DISCARD ios to the partition statistics and append them to the various stat files in /sys as well as /proc/diskstats. These are tracked with the same four stats as reads and writes: Number of discard ios completed. Number of discard ios merged Number of discard sectors completed Milliseconds spent on discard requests This is done via adding a new STAT_DISCARD define to genhd.h and then using it to index that stat field for discard requests. tj: Refreshed on top of v4.17 and other previous updates.
