Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1516697
udisks2 should support the "no-discard" option during formatting
Last modified: 2018-04-24 03:29:24 EDT
Description of problem: This pull request https://github.com/storaged-project/udisks/pull/459 (or something equivalent) should make it into RHEL 7.5 so that creating a filesystem on a VDO volume with Cockpit will not suck. Also see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1516041.
Here is a version of the patch for udisks2 2.7.3: https://github.com/mvollmer/storaged-1/tree/2.7.3-format-no-discard
I found no reproducer or a way to verify the new function (discussed with vtrefny), so decided to verify sanity only. udisks2-2.7.3-4.el7: - https://rpmdiff.engineering.redhat.com/run/186656/17/ - "Patch2 (no_discard_1516697.patch) was added." udisks2-2.7.3-6.el7.src.rpm: - no_discard_1516697.patch is present. Conclusion: Verified SanityOnly.
