requirePrimaryStable in TestHASubnetRouterFailoverDockerDisconnect
Phase 5a (simultaneous cable-pull of both routers) intermittently
caught the primary flipping to the offline r1. Both probe goroutines
mark their target unhealthy back-to-back; SetNodeUnhealthy publishes a
fresh NodeStore snapshot each call, so the intermediate snapshot — r1
unhealthy, r2 still healthy — runs the election with one healthy
candidate left and picks it. The next snapshot then enters the
all-unhealthy preserve-prev path, which preserves the wrong choice.
Collect probe results from the cycle and apply them through a new
NodeStore.UpdateNodes batched op so the election only runs once, with
the cycle's final health state. PolicyChange dispatch moves outside
the wg.Go goroutines and fires once if the primary assignment
actually changed.
electPrimaryRoutes' all-unhealthy fallback picked candidates[0]
(lowest NodeID) regardless of who was prev. Under cable-pull
semantics IsOnline lags reality (long-poll TCP half-open), so
both routers stay in candidates and both go Unhealthy via the
prober — the fallback then churned primary to a node that was
itself unreachable.
Prefer prev when still in candidates; fall through to
candidates[0] only when prev is gone. Anti-blackhole holds.
Update the property test reference model and split the unit
test into existence (KeepsAPrimary) and identity
(PreservesPrevious) cases.
