Kernel Source and devicetree for NOTHING Phone(3a) and Phone(3a)Pro
Mike Kravetz reports that "hugetlb allocations could stall for minutes or hours when should_compact_retry() would return true more often then it should. Specifically, this was in the case where compact_result was COMPACT_DEFERRED and COMPACT_PARTIAL_SKIPPED and no progress was being made." The problem is that the compaction_withdrawn() test in should_compact_retry() includes compaction outcomes that are only possible on low compaction priority, and results in a retry without increasing the priority. This may result in furter reclaim, and more incomplete compaction attempts. With this patch, compaction priority is raised when possible, or should_compact_retry() returns false. The COMPACT_SKIPPED result doesn't really fit together with the other outcomes in compaction_withdrawn(), as that's a result caused by insufficient order-0 pages, not due to low compaction priority. With this patch, it is moved to a new compaction_needs_reclaim() function, and for that outcome we keep the current logic of retrying if it looks like reclaim will be able to help.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
