Using VIR_STORAGE_VOL_WIPE_ALG_TRIM a RBD volume can be trimmed down to 0 bytes using rbd_dicard()
Effectively all the data on the volume will be lost/gone, but the volume remains available for use afterwards. Starting at offset 0 the storage pool will call rbd_discard() in stripe size * count increments which is usually 4MB. Stripe size being 4MB and count 1. rbd_discard() is available since Ceph version Dumpling (0.67) which dates back to August 2013.
