Description:

The 'scsi_debug' module is disabled in archlinux kernel config.
Please consider to build it as module.
It's a modlue simulate scsi disks using ram memory and could be used for
complex scsi test/coding like multipath, DIF/DIX.

I am using dkms pkg for this, but it takes some time to sync the code whenever
archlinux upgrade the linux package.

Additional info:
linux 4.9.11-1
linux-lts 4.9.13-1
# CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG is not set

Steps to reproduce:
modinfo scsi_debug
This task depends upon

@tpowa Any chance we could get `scsi_debug` module included?

If you're involved in kernel development shouldn't you be running your own kernel?

I use scsi-debug for userspace project development like libdmmp of multipath-tools and sg3_utils.
