Subject: mm: vmscan: propagate real error code from per-node proactive reclaim
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 11:34:33 +0800
It has been observed that per-node proactive reclaim always returns
-EAGAIN when any error occurs. As discussed in the mailing list [1], the
interface should distinguish between cases where no reclaimable memory is
left and where another entity is concurrently using the same interface.
Propagate the real error code, consistent with how memcg proactive reclaim
handles errors.
