OpenBSD and solid state disks

I recently installed OpenBSD on a Lenovo X1 Carbon with a solid state
drive and it works great.

My question is whether OpenBSD addresses the special characteristics
of solid state drives, especially those having to do with longevity
and reliability. I can't find anything written on this. Linux has
certain means for addressing this issue, such as fstrim as well as
various kernel options. Is there anything I have missed with OpenBSD
on this subject?
