* Test that the kernel properly handles PMAE across context switches.
*
* We test this by calling into the kernel inside our EBB handler, where PMAE
* is clear. A cpu eater companion thread is running on the same CPU as us to
* encourage the scheduler to switch us.
*
* The kernel must make sure that when it context switches us back in, it
* honours the fact that we had PMAE clear.
*
* Observed to hit the failing case on the first EBB with a broken kernel.

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `sched.h`, `signal.h`, `stdbool.h`, `stdio.h`, `stdlib.h`, `ebb.h`.
- Detected declarations: `function syscall_ebb_callee`, `function test_body`, `function pmae_handling`, `function main`.
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / tools.
- Implementation status: source implementation candidate.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
