Should autodetect ability to use FUA #25

Open baruch opened 10 years ago

baruch commented 10 years ago

In commit 418897b818dc868894b19da081be207b5dc8994a FUA usage was disabled since some older ATA disks do not support it. We need to auto-detect the ability to use FUA and use it if possible.

Linux kernel does autodetection of FUA, maybe this could help you: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/17/417
