Timed out here:

cockroach/pkg/kv/kvclient/rangefeed/rangefeed_external_test.go

Line 1984 in 49cbc69

t.Fatal("test timed out")

This is under race=true, so maybe the timeout in the line above should be bumped accordingly. Should use the helper that overrides the timeout under race:

cockroach/pkg/testutils/soon.go

Line 80 in 49cbc69

func SucceedsSoonDuration() time.Duration {

This timeout happens for the first time, so if I were to guess, it could be related to #156303 like in #156852 (comment).

I'm going to close this one when #157087 merges. If there is some underlying problem with #156303, we have more issues open that track it.
