Currently, zvols have a discard granularity set to 0, which suggests to the upper layer that discard requests of arbirarily small size and alignment can be made efficiently. In practice however, ZFS does not handle unaligned discard requests efficiently: indeed, it is unable to free a part of a block. It will write zeros to the specified range instead, which is both useless and inefficient (see dnode_free_range). With this patch, zvol block devices expose volblocksize as their discard granularity, so the upper layer is aware that it's not supposed to send discard requests smaller than volblocksize.

Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:
$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...
Full documentation for building, configuring, and using ZFS can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
