You will also need to compile the kernel with
CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING=y
... and it would be a good idea to turn on
CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y
which gives fuller error messages in your log file
when something goes wrong.
If you want ongoing debug output, then the form:
# echo "scsi log <token> <number>" > /proc/scsi/scsi
will do this. See brief explanation around line 2235
on linux/drivers/scsi/scsi.c . Be careful if your root
file system is on a SCSI disk because this debug output
can cause an infinite loop with your log file !
