It should be the same as echo $((7<<6)) > /sys/module/scsi_mod/parameters/scsi_logging_level (which indeed is 448) at runtime, right? (And yes, CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING is set to y).
Heh oh those magic numbers!.. ;)
Ok, I've turned on the logging on a bunch of machines (using the sysfs method), let's see what will happen next. Thank you!
By the way, should kernel pefrorm at least *some* "minimal" logging of such a serious events by default? Well ok, ok, it's not known yet what the event really is, so I'm shutting up now, at least for a while.. ;)
