-Subject: [PATCH 2/2] librbd: Conditionally import TrimRequest.cc
-
-We include TrimRequest.cc in librbd tests at two places:
- - operation/test_mock_TrimRequest.cc
- - operation/test_mock_ResizeRequest.cc
-
-That causes linking errors when doing the builds because some of the
-structures are defined twice.
