+///
+/// # Why TCP keepalive cannot evict the connection in this setup
+///
+/// The server always configures TCP keepalive on accepted sockets. The two eviction mechanisms
+/// are distinguishable by how the zombie socket observes the close:
+/// - **TCP keepalive**: the kernel sends a RST after all probes go unanswered → `read_to_end`
+///   returns `Err(connection reset by peer)`.
+/// - **HTTP/2 PING timeout (hyper)**: the server sends a GOAWAY frame and then closes gracefully →
+///   `read_to_end` returns `Ok` with data containing a GOAWAY frame.
+///
+/// On loopback (`127.0.0.1`) the kernel itself ACKs TCP keepalive probes, even when the remote
+/// application ignores them. Probes therefore never go unanswered, and the kernel never sends a
+/// RST. Testing TCP keepalive eviction would require a setup where probes can genuinely be
+/// dropped — for example, a `veth` pair in separate network namespaces with `tc netem` packet
+/// loss applied to ACKs. In the unit-test environment that is not available, so the test asserts
+/// `Ok` + GOAWAY to confirm the eviction is via HTTP/2 PING and that TCP keepalive does not
+/// interfere.
