@@ -39,6 +39,12 @@ When mounting an XFS filesystem, the following options are accepted.
 	drive level write caching to be enabled, for devices that
 	support write barriers.
 
+  discard
+	Issue command to let the block device reclaim space freed by the
+	filesystem.  This is useful for SSD devices, thinly provisioned
+	LUNs and virtual machine images, but may have a performance
+	impact.  This option is incompatible with the nodelaylog option.

   dmapi
 	Enable the DMAPI (Data Management API) event callouts.
 	Use with the "mtpt" option.
