Latest virtio spec says the feature bit name is VIRTIO_BLK_F_FLUSH, VIRTIO_BLK_F_WCE is the legacy name. virtio blk header says exactly the reverse - fix that and update driver code to match.

Currently virtio-blk driver does not provide discard feature flag, so the filesystems which built on top of the block device will not send discard command. This is okay for HDD backend, but it will impact the performance for SSD backend. Add a feature flag VIRTIO_BLK_F_DISCARD and command VIRTIO_BLK_T_DISCARD to extend exist virtio-blk protocol, define 16 bytes discard descriptor for each discard

Existing virtio-blk protocol doesn't have DISCARD/WRITE ZEROES command support, this will impact the performance when using SSD backend over file systems. The idea here is using 16 Bytes payload as one descriptor for DISCARD/WRITE ZEROES command, users can put several ranges into one command, for the purpose to support such feature, two feature flags

Hi Daniel, Other than crosvm, is there any version of qemu (e.g., repositories developed in progress on github) where I can try with this feature? Thank you very much!

Existing virtio-blk protocol doesn't have DISCARD/WRITE ZEROES commands support, this will impact the performance when using SSD backend over file systems. Commit 88c85538 "virtio-blk: add discard and write zeroes features to specification"(see https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-spec) extended existing virtio-blk protocol, adding extra DISCARD and WRITE ZEROES commands support.
