TASK 1 — reliably single-pass green L2/L3:
Split run_chainsaw into a LIGHT pass (concurrent, config parallelism) and a
HEAVY pass (serial, parallel=1). The KubeVirt-CDI/Longhorn/DR tests
(vm-lifecycle, vm-data-survival, vm-default-deny, data-survival, dr-restore)
spike embedded-etcd on the small dev VMs; running them serially in their own
pass keeps their etcd spikes from ever coinciding with another test's setup —
the coincidence that let one heavy test's apiserver blip fail-close Kyverno
admission and abort every in-flight test at 0.01s. Heavy set is keyed by test
dir basename and overridable via CONF_HEAVY_TESTS. Each pass writes its own
JUnit; lib/merge_junit.py stitches them into the one stable report.junit.xml
CI collects, so the split is invisible downstream. Overall rc is the union of
both passes (no masking — real failures still surface).
Proof: full --layer l2,l3 run now completes single-pass green: 24/24 passed,
0 failures/errors/skipped. vpn-killswitch, which previously failed with an
apiserver EOF (etcd blip), passed; no mass environmental setup-aborts.
TASK 2 (T-4.1) — author conformance/tests/l3-fault-injection/alerting/
fixtures/smtp-sink.yaml: a hermetic Mailpit SMTP capture sink (Service
smtp-sink, SMTP 1025, HTTP API 8025) the alerting test applies as its mail
sink. restricted-PodSecurity compliant, in-memory (no PVC). Unblocks the
previously-aborting alerting scaffold; it now passes.
Touches conformance/ + ci-read content only — no apps/ or platform/ workload.
