Hello, basically a repeat from my post 9 months ago, this time with DRBD 8.4.5 versus kernel 3.16 (the current Debian backport kernel). In short I have rather new, modern hardware that needs a pretty recent kernel, the stock 3.2 Debian Wheezy kernel won't even see the LSI 3008 controller in there. No problem, install the backports kernel (3.16) and everything works. With 8.4.3, but I have machines running that for ages now w/o problems. Alas these machines also has their storage on SSDs, thus TRIM support is very high on the "desired feature" list. Now 8.4.5 is only supposed to work up to kernel 3.14, should I even bother with 3.16? Since the kernel version keeps getting behind the scenes updates all the time, was TRIM amongst those and is maybe supported in a recent kernel? Are we going to see something higher than 8.4.3 in any kernel any time soon? All things considered, I'd rather go with 3.18 than 3.14 if possible.
