"order" is -1 when compacting via /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory. Making it unsigned causes a bug in __compact_pgdat() when we test: if (cc->order< 0 || !compaction_deferred(zone, cc->order)) compact_zone(zone, cc);
Good catch! I had not even thought to check whether order was signed in struct compact_control, when I saw code using -1 as an order in various places :)
