From: "Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta)" <[email protected]> wait_for_scan() gives every case the same three seconds, whatever the huge page costs to build. collapse_full() asks for four of them: 8M at a 2M PMD, but 2G at a 512M PMD -- arm64 with 64K base pages.
Three seconds is thin at that size rather than generous. Across 80 runs of collapse_full() on arm64 with 64K pages the wait was half a second in 73 of them, with a tail to two seconds. The case has also timed out in a full matrix run, reporting a failure for a collapse that was still going. Keep three seconds as the floor and add a second per 128M collapsed. A 2M PMD is unchanged. A 512M PMD gets 19 seconds. arm64/64K: khugepaged all:anon 21 pass/1 fail -> 22 pass/0 fail. x86-64 is unchanged.
