The way for a client of Cinder (read: Nova) to know whether or not it can and should use the discard feature for the block device attachment is to report back discard=True in the connection info. Previously a driver would need to be updated to provide this functionality, which is kind of a pain with so many drivers in Cinder. This change adds a shared boolean config option called ‘report_discard_supported’ which can be set to enable reporting this functionality to the caller of initialize_connection.
