NAME

6       nbd_can_trim - does the server support the trim command?
7

SYNOPSIS

9        #include <libnbd.h>
10
11        int nbd_can_trim (struct nbd_handle *h);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       Returns true if the server supports the trim command (see nbd_trim(3),
15       nbd_aio_trim(3)).  Returns false if the server does not.
16
17       This call does not block, because it returns data that is saved in the
18       handle from the NBD protocol handshake.
19

RETURN VALUE

21       This call returns a boolean value.
22

ERRORS

24       On error "-1" is returned.
25
26       Refer to "ERROR HANDLING" in libnbd(3) for how to get further details
27       of the error.
28
29       The following parameters must not be NULL: "h".  For more information
30       see "Non-NULL parameters" in libnbd(3).
31

HANDLE STATE

33       The handle must be negotiating, or connected with the server, or shut
34       down, otherwise this call will return an error.
35

VERSION

37       This function first appeared in libnbd 1.0.
38
39       If you need to test if this function is available at compile time check
40       if the following macro is defined:
41
42        #define LIBNBD_HAVE_NBD_CAN_TRIM 1
43

EXAMPLE

45       This example is also available as examples/server-flags.c in the libnbd
46       source code.

48        /* This example shows how to connect to an NBD
49         * server and print the export flags.
50         *
51         * You can test it with nbdkit like this:
52         *
53         * nbdkit -U - memory 1M \
54         *   --run './server-flags $unixsocket'
