That means that if fstrim is used inside the VM, that it is getting passed down? The command line needed for qemu to support discards is: $ qemu … -drive if=virtio,cache=unsafe,discard,file=<disk> … I'm not sure which qemu disk drivers/busses support this, but at least virtio does so. I'm using it for development. You could try a vdsm hook to modify the qemu command which is called when the VM is spawned. Let me know if you can come up with a hook to realize this!
