The file is not there because the driver is not yet loaded. You have to
load the driver first before you can change the buffersize. All the
appropriate /proc stuff gets created after the driver loads.

Please respond to
Linux on 390 Port
The IBM "Linux for S/390 Device Drivers and Installation Commands"
document, dated 18 July 2001, in Chapter Seven, "Linux for S/390 CTC/ESCON
Device Driver", has Usage Note 2 under "Preparing the Connection" which
reads:
Definitions on the remote side
Set up the TCP/IP on the remote side, as described in the reference
manuals.
This will vary depending on which operating system is used on the remote
side.
Note: It is important that you have IOBUFFERSIZE 32678 defined because
the
LINUX for S/390 CTC driver works with 32k internally. This is
configurable
for each device by writing the value to the buffersize file for that
device
(proc/net/ctc/<devicename>/buffersize ), for example
echo 32768 >/proc/net/ctc/ctc0/buffersize
I'm not sure how this is accomplished. Logging on as root and issuing the
command doesn't work. Here's what I get:
LINUXWPS:/proc # echo 32768 >/proc/net/ctc/ctc0/buffersize
bash: /proc/net/ctc/ctc0/buffersize: No such file or directory
What is the correct technique for creating the appropriate directories and
file?
