Look at the case I said in last mail, if the segment which owns the deleted file has no more changing after the file deleting, and its validate blocks are perhaps over 95%, and it may not be easy to be selected as a gc victim. In this case, FTL can not know the "file delete" on time, and the invalidate blocks of that file can not be discarded in FTL layer on time.

Correction: current active segment is also treated as a candidate for small discards in add_discard_addrs(). So, it seems you want to discard small invalid chunks in the current active segments, right?

And even in the case section/segment == 1, the blocks of that deleted file can only be discarded in a range of single 2M rather than its real blocks range, which disturbs the semantic of "small discards". By the way, there is still a problem of "double discard". When the small discard option is on, the blocks of the deleted file will send small discard via add_discard_addrs, and also will send the section-level discard when the whole section is free later. I will think about to avoid the section-level discard, then the small discard of that deleted file is needed although "!se->valid_blocks && !IS_CURSEG(sbi, cpc->trim_start)" is true, since the other blocks of that segment has already sent small discard when they got invalid before, and we just need to send the discard of that deleted file which is the last one taking up in the segment.
