[PATCH v8 05/14] rv: Add a KUnit test for the storage free path

From: wen . yang

Date: Thu Nov 05 2026 - 12:52:19 EST


From: Wen Yang <wen.yang@xxxxxxxxx>

A per-object HA monitor whose timer is armed through a pointer resolved
before da_destroy_storage() outlives the storage and reports against a
gone entity. Real handlers resolve and use a storage under one
guard(rcu)(), so the fixture issues the two steps separately to reach
that window.

Add rv_test_rvtest_arm_after_destroy() to rv_ha_kunit.c to verify that
the free hook properly disarms the timer before the storage is freed.
