STATUS_GRAPHICS_CANT_EVICT_PINNED_ALLOCATION
Pinned residency blocks this eviction path
The allocation cannot be moved out of its current segment because it is pinned. WDDM documentation calls out overlay and capture allocations as examples that can be pinned, and explains that a pinned allocation can prevent an eviction path through the affected segment.
Find why the allocation is pinned
Record allocation flags, segment, overlay/capture or scan-out role, eviction segment set, residency budget, and the operation requesting eviction. The useful remediation is to reduce or release the pinned requirement, change placement, or make another resource reclaimable; repeated eviction attempts cannot succeed while the pin remains.
