Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2008 21:03:10 +0800 From: Denis Cheng <crquan@...il.com> To: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@...senPartnership.com> Cc: linux-scsi@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [RFC][PATCH] mark /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level to be removed Signed-off-by: Denis Cheng <crquan@...il.com> --- Since scsi_logging_level module_param can be read/written while system running, the demand for /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level has been no longer mandotory. But someone might have already set this value in /etc/sysctl.conf, so mark it to be removed in one year (until March 2009). One year might be not enough or too long, this period should also be discussed.
