Subject: [PATCH 22/28] hazptrtorture: Add drain fairness rotation scenario
Date: Thu,  5 Nov 2026 00:54:40 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104165504.2430480-23-kunwu.chan@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261104165504.2430480-1-kunwu.chan@gmail.com>

Two stuck addresses, each held by a dedicated holder for the
whole observation window (hot_fair_ms), with two sync waiters
launched back to back.  The first waiter's drain engages and,
because its holder never releases, must hit the fairness cap;
the second waiter's counter kept growing, so it gets the next
drain turn.  Rotation evidence comes from the kernel drain logs:
distinct addresses in "drain engaged" lines plus at least one
"drain disengaged (fairness-cap" line.

The module verdict only requires forward progress: after both
holders release, both syncs must drain within 30 s.  Rotation
observation is reported via console-log checks in hazptr.sh,
graded as notes (not errors) when the window is too short for
the configured HZ.
