Hi!

I am trying to build an new backend for SANE.
The SANE docs say, that it is recommended to increase sg-big-buf.
Ok, I thought, an changed /usr/src/linux/include/scsi/sg.h to
look like:

/*#define SG_BIG_BUFF SG_SCATTER_SZ*/ /* mcc:off for backward compatibility */
#define SG_BIG_BUFF (SG_SCATTER_SZ * 8) /* =256KB, if you want mcc */

(last lines of that file...)

and recompiled the kernel, install it and rebooted.

A cat /proc/sys/kernel/sg-big-buf shows me 32kByte nevertheless.

?

What I am doing wrong?
I expspected too see something like 256kByte...

Thank you very much in advance for any hint...

May the Pengo be with you!
Meino
