Is there some reason why these messages are desirable and need to be on by
default?
They certainly get annoyingly voluminous at times. The following comment is from
the freebsd-scsi archives:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I have some machines at work, and whenever I do lots of disk io, I
get tons of the "tagged openings now XX" messages. I noticed
that this is due to line 2819 in cam_xpt.c:
if (bootverbose || 1) {
xpt_print_path(crs->ccb_h.path);
printf("tagged openings "
"now %d\n",
crs->openings);
}
Would it be possible to remove this 1 before the 3.0 release?
