Most likely, the allocation wanted some other type of allocation.
The (C) on the order-10 says it's an CMA area.
static const char types[MIGRATE_TYPES] = {
[MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE] = 'U',
[MIGRATE_MOVABLE] = 'M',
[MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE] = 'E',
[MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC] = 'H',
#ifdef CONFIG_CMA
[MIGRATE_CMA] = 'C',
#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION
[MIGRATE_ISOLATE] = 'I',
#endif
If the call was for an unmovable, movable, reclaimable, or highatomic
allocation, you lose.
If you look at the source for alloc_ap_req(), you find it wants GFP_ATOMIC, not
CMA. And your box is fresh out of contiguous order-10 spaces that aren't CMA,
and you're down to your last 3 order-9 flagged as (UEC).
I admit I find it a tad suspicious that the USB gadget driver asks for a 4M
chunk of memory. Does USB actually support single transfers that large? (I'm
not a USB expert)
