CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING: SCSI logging facility

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING has multiple definitions:

SCSI logging facility found in drivers/scsi/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING:

• prompt: SCSI logging facility
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_SCSI
• defined in drivers/scsi/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 2.5.45–2.5.75, 2.6.0–2.6.39, 3.0–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.11

Help text

This turns on a logging facility that can be used to debug a number of SCSI related problems.

If you say Y here, no logging output will appear by default, but you can enable logging by saying Y to "/proc file system support" and "Sysctl support" below and executing the command

echo <bitmask> > /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level

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 logging types and you can find them in the source at drivers/scsi/scsi_logging.h. The logging levels are also described in that file and they determine the verbosity of the logging for each logging type.

If you say N here, it may be harder to track down some types of SCSI problems. If you say Y here your kernel will be somewhat larger, but there should be no noticeable performance impact as long as you have logging turned off.

SCSI logging facility found in arch/um/Kconfig.scsi

The configuration item CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING:

SCSI logging facility found in arch/sparc64/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING:

• prompt: SCSI logging facility
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_SCSI
• defined in arch/sparc64/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 2.5.45–2.5.72

Help text

This turns on a logging facility that can be used to debug a number of SCSI related problems.

If you say Y here, no logging output will appear by default, but you 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

at boot time after the /proc file system has been mounted.

There are a number of things that can be used for 'token' (you can find them in the source: drivers/scsi/scsi.c), and this allows you to select the types of information you want, and the level allows you to select the level of verbosity.

If you say N here, it may be harder to track down some types of SCSI problems. If you say Y here your kernel will be somewhat larger, but there should be no noticeable performance impact as long as you have logging turned off.
