MADV_COLLAPSE is a best-effort request that attempts to set an actionable
errno value if the request cannot be fulfilled at the time. EAGAIN should
be used to communicate that a resource was temporarily unavailable, but
that the user may try again immediately.
SCAN_DEL_PAGE_LRU is an internal result code used when a page cannot be
isolated from it's LRU list. Since this, like SCAN_PAGE_LRU, is likely a
transitory state, make MADV_COLLAPSE return EAGAIN so that users know they
may reattempt the operation.
Another important scenario to consider is race with khugepaged.
khugepaged might isolate a page while MADV_COLLAPSE is interested in it.
Even though racing with khugepaged might mean that the memory has already
been collapsed, signalling an errno that is non-intrinsic to that memory
or arguments provided to madvise(2) lets the user know that future
attempts might (and in this case likely would) succeed, and avoids
false-negative assumptions by the user.

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.
