Can you have a look at the updated master branch of
https://github.com/bvanassche/blktests? That code should no longer fail if
unloading the nvme kernel module fails. Please note that you will need
kernel v4.18 to test these scripts - a KASAN complaint appears if I run
these tests against kernel v4.19-rc4.

Thanks, these pass now. Is it expected that my nvme device gets a
multipath device configured after running these tests?

$ lsblk

No, all multipath devices that were created during a test should be removed before that test finishes. I will look into this.

Also, can you please fix:

	_have_kernel_option NVME_MULTIPATH && exit 1

to not exit on failure? It should use SKIP_REASON and return 1. You
might need to add something like _dont_have_kernel_option to properly
handle the case where the config is not found.

OK, I will change this.

Side note which isn't a blocker for merging is that there's a lot of
duplicated code between these helpers and the srp helpers. How hard
would it be to refactor that?

Are you perhaps referring to the code that is shared between the tests/srp/rc tests/nvmeof-mp/rc shell scripts? The hardest part is probably to chose a location where to store these functions. Should I create a file with common code under common/, under tests/srp/, under tests/nvmeof-mp/ or perhaps somewhere else?

Thanks,

Bart.
