When a VM sends a discard/trim command, is it sent to the SSD, LVM

Hi, yes it's working with lvm (lvm thin only)
Hi,
I opened a bug report to the debian-installer package to see if it
could add lvm-thin support.
LVM supports discard so there is no need to change to lvm-thin for that
reason.
From lvm.conf:
" # Configuration option devices/issue_discards.
# Issue discards to PVs that are no longer used by an LV.
# Discards are sent to an LV's underlying physical volumes when
the LV # is no longer using the physical volumes' space, e.g. lvremove,
# lvreduce. Discards inform the storage that a region is no
longer # used. Storage that supports discards advertise the
protocol-specific # way discards should be issued by the kernel (TRIM,
UNMAP, or # WRITE SAME with UNMAP bit set). Not all storage will
support or # benefit from discards, but SSDs and thinly provisioned LUNs
# generally do. If enabled, discards will only be issued if
both the # storage and kernel provide support.
issue_discards = 0
"
Yes, I know this description of the "issue_discards" option.
I find this description incomplete. It is clearly stated that in the
event of removal or reduction of the logical volume, the discard
commands are sent. But nothing is said for common operations like
deleting a file within the logical volume, or a periodic fstrim. It is
unknown if discard commands are transmitted.
It was this ambiguity that made me open this discussion.
Regards.
