can enable logging by saying Y to "/proc file system support" and
"Sysctl support" below and executing the command
- echo "scsi log token [level]" > /proc/scsi/scsi
+ echo <bitmask> > /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level
- at boot time after the /proc file system has been mounted.
+ where <bitmask> is a four byte value representing the logging type
+ and logging level for each type of logging selected.
- There are a number of things that can be used for 'token' (you can
- find them in the source: <file:drivers/scsi/scsi.c>), and this
- allows you to select the types of information you want, and the
