Description:
This is the smallest unit a physical storage device can
write atomically. It is usually the same as the logical
block size but may be bigger. One example is SATA
drives with 4KB sectors that expose a 512-byte logical
block size to the operating system. For stacked block
devices the physical_block_size variable contains the
maximum physical_block_size of the component devices.

Description:
Storage devices may report a granularity or preferred
minimum I/O size which is the smallest request the
device can perform without incurring a performance
penalty. For disk drives this is often the physical
block size. For RAID arrays it is often the stripe
chunk size. A properly aligned multiple of
minimum_io_size is the preferred request size for
workloads where a high number of I/O operations is
desired.

摘要：
存储设备可能会记录一个粒度或优先级最小的I/O的大
小，这是在不导致性能降低的前提下，可执行设备的最
小要求。对于磁盘设备，这通常是物理块大小。对于RAID
阵列，这通常是条纹快大小。恰当的最小输入输出大小
的多重对齐是需要大量I/O操作的工作负载的首选请求。

Description:
Storage devices may report an optimal I/O size, which is
the device's preferred unit for sustained I/O. This is
rarely reported for disk drives. For RAID arrays it is
usually the stripe width or the internal track size. A
properly aligned multiple of optimal_io_size is the
preferred request size for workloads where sustained
throughput is desired. If no optimal I/O size is
reported this file contains 0.

单元。这很少为磁盘驱动记录。对于RAID阵列，这通常是条纹

有记录最优I/O大小，这个文件置为0.

Description:
Standard I/O elevator operations include attempts to
merge contiguous I/Os. For known random I/O loads these
attempts will always fail and result in extra cycles
being spent in the kernel. This allows one to turn off
this behavior on one of two ways: When set to 1, complex
merge checks are disabled, but the simple one-shot merges
with the previous I/O request are enabled. When set to 2,
all merge tries are disabled. The default value is 0 -
which enables all types of merge tries.

摘要：
标准的I/O电梯运行包括尝试合并相邻I/Os。对于已知的随机
I/O负载，这些尝试通常会失败，并导致额外的周期用于内核。
阻止这种行为的两种方式之一：当置为1，复杂的合并检查被
禁用，但是和前面的I/O请求的简单一次性合并被启用。当置
为2，所有的尝试合并都是被禁用的。合并默认值是0——所有
类型的尝试合并都被启用。

Description:
Devices that support discard functionality may
internally allocate space using units that are bigger
than the logical block size. The discard_granularity
parameter indicates the size of the internal allocation
unit in bytes if reported by the device. Otherwise the
discard_granularity will be set to match the device's
physical block size. A discard_granularity of 0 means
that the device does not support discard functionality.

摘要：
支持丢弃功能的设备可能用比逻辑块大的单元在内部分配
空间。如果被设备记录，丢弃粒度参数表明内部分配单元以
比特位单位的大小。否则，丢弃粒度将会被设置成匹配设备
物理块大小的值。丢弃粒度为0表明设备不支持丢弃功能。

/sys/block/<disk>/queue/discard_max_bytes
Date:
May 2011
Contact:
Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
Devices that support discard functionality may have
internal limits on the number of bytes that can be
trimmed or unmapped in a single operation. Some storage
protocols also have inherent limits on the number of
blocks that can be described in a single command. The
discard_max_bytes parameter is set by the device driver
to the maximum number of bytes that can be discarded in
a single operation. Discard requests issued to the
device must not exceed this limit. A discard_max_bytes
value of 0 means that the device does not support
discard functionality.

摘要：
支持丢弃功能的设备可能在单一操作上能够削减或映射的
字节数有内部限制。一些存储协议对于单一命令中能被描述
的块的数量也有固定的限制。丢弃最大字节参数被驱动设备
设置成在单一操作中能够被丢弃的字节的最大数量。设备发
出的丢弃请求不能超过这个限制。丢弃最大字节值为0表明该
设备不支持丢弃功能。

Contact:
Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
Devices that support discard functionality may return
stale or random data when a previously discarded block
is read back. This can cause problems if the filesystem
expects discarded blocks to be explicitly cleared. If a
device reports that it deterministically returns zeroes
when a discarded area is read the discard_zeroes_data
parameter will be set to one. Otherwise it will be 0 and
the result of reading a discarded area is undefined.

摘要：
支持丢弃功能的设备当之前丢弃的块被读回时，可能返回
过期或随机数据。如果文件系统想要显式地丢弃块这样可
能会导致问题发生。如果设备报告当丢弃区域被读设备肯定
返回0，丢弃零数据参数将被置1。否则将被置为0，并且读
丢弃区域的结果是未定义的。

Description:
Some devices support a write same operation in which a
single data block can be written to a range of several
contiguous blocks on storage. This can be used to wipe
areas on disk or to initialize drives in a RAID
configuration. write_same_max_bytes indicates how many
bytes can be written in a single write same command. If
write_same_max_bytes is 0, write same is not supported
by the device.

摘要：
一些设备在单个数据块可以被写到几个相邻的数据块中的
存储器中支持写相同操作。这个可以用来擦除磁盘区域，还
可以在RAID配置中初始化驱动器。写相同最大字节表明在一
次写相同命令中有多少字节可以被写入。如果写相同最大
字节为0，则说明设备不支持写相同。
