I finally got around to trying these scripts.  Thanks for making them
available.

But unfortunately I cannot get either the scsidebug or tcmloop mode to
run against v4.5-rc4

For tcmloop, targetcli fails with:
"Could not create ISCSIFabricModule in configFS."
(fixed by enabling CONFIG_ISCSI_TARGET under TARGET_CORE)

I'm seeing all tests fail due to fio verification failure.  I'll need to
inspect this further..

But the most problematic test is ./tests/test_03_dm_failpath -- it seems
to actively break _any_ v4.5-rc kernel I try (with a never-ending flood
of messages like "device-mapper: multipath: Failing path 8:192."); I
haven't tried older kernels.

What is the last kernel version that your scripts have worked on?

Taking a step back:
These scripts don't belong in Documentation/device-mapper/mptest/ (or
anywhere in the kernel tree for that matter).

I'd really prefer it if we could port your scripts over to the
device-mapper-test-suite, see:
