Subject: mm/compaction: fix low_pfn advance on isolating hugetlb
Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2025 09:22:40 +0000

Commit 56ae0bb349b4 ("mm: compaction: convert to use a folio in
isolate_migratepages_block()") converts api from page to folio.  But the
low_pfn advance for hugetlb page seems wrong when low_pfn doesn't point to
head page.

Originally, if page is a hugetlb tail page, compound_nr() return 1, which
means low_pfn only advance one in next iteration.  After the change,
low_pfn would advance more than the hugetlb range, since folio_nr_pages()
always return total number of the large page.  This results in skipping
some range to isolate and then to migrate.

The worst case for alloc_contig is it does all the isolation and
migration, but finally find some range is still not isolated.  And then
undo all the work and try a new range.

Advance low_pfn to the end of hugetlb.
