mm/damon/core: don't skip damos_adjust_quota() while esz is not zero

2026-09-26T20:55:10Z

DAMOS could unexpectedly stop working when a user disables quota using the online parameters commit feature. Fix it by correcting a wrong quota unset check in damos_adjust_quota(). DAMON users could disable all quotas by unsetting time and size quotas, and removing all quota goals. The intention of disabling quotas would be making DAMOS run at full speed. When such quota disabled setup is detected, damos_adjust_quota() skips all its work. The skipped works include effective size quota (damos_quota->esz) updates and charged quota amount (damos_quota->charged_sz) resets. The intention is to avoid doing unnecessary work when quotas are disabled. However, users could do the setup while effective size quota is non-zero, by doing the disabling with the online DAMON parameters commit feature. In this case, because the effective size quota exists, DAMOS will keep working with the quota until it is fully charged. After the effective quota is fully charged, the charged quota amount (damos_quota->charged_sz) cannot be reset because damos_adjust_quota() skips it. Then, DAMOS stops working until the quota is newly set or DAMON is entirely restarted. The problem happens because damos_adjust_quota() assumes the user setup for disabling quota immediately disabled it. In reality, the quota is still working until the effective size quota is also updated to zero. Other logic for catching that uses damos_quota_is_set(), which understands the fact and therefore checks the effective size quota in addition to the user setup. Fix the issue by using damos_quota_is_set() in damos_adjust_quota() to determine if its works should be skipped. The user impact is a non-deterministic and unexpected DAMOS stop behavior. That is, users would disable quotas using the online parameters commit feature, expecting DAMOS will run at full speed. However, depending on the timing, the setup can be updated while the effective size quota is non-zero. Due to the above mentioned internal mechanism, DAMOS stops working instead of running at full speed. It is unexpected behavior. It is also non-deterministic because sometimes the setup is done when the effective size quota is zero, depending on the timing. It doesn't cause critical issues like crashes or leaks. Users can simply set a reasonable quota again, or restart DAMON. But definitely it is an unexpected and non-deterministic behavior that makes it difficult to reliably use. Also investigating the root cause of the behavior would be quite difficult.

mm/damon/core: reset invalid quota->charge_target_from

2026-09-18T15:20:14Z

DAMOS can suddenly stop working if a target process that the quota is just fully charged on is terminated. Fix by catching and processing the corner case. When DAMOS quota is fully charged, the target and the region to continue applying the action in the next round is saved in damos_quota->charge_{target,addr}_from. In the next round, DAMOS iterates targets and regions from the beginning. It skips applying the action to the regions until it visits and skips the saved target/region. Virtual address space targets become invalid if the process is terminated. Trying to apply the scheme to invalid target is just a waste of time. Hence commit 6e4930e33329 ("mm/damon/core: fix wasteful CPU calls by skipping non-existent targets") made the logic to skip invalid targets. However, it does skip before the charged target/region skipping/updating. Let's suppose the user runs DAMOS for multiple virtual address spaces with a quota. The quota exceeded in the middle of a virtual address space. And the process of the address space is terminated. Then the charge_target_from points to the invalid target. The pointer update logic is skipped for the invalid target, so the charge_target_from is never updated. DAMOS action to every target/region is skipped. From the user's perspective, it would look like suddenly DAMOS has stopped working. No critical leak or crash can happen. The user could reinstall the scheme. But this makes use of DAMOS under certain setups quite unreliable. When the invalid target is found, further check the corner case and reset the pointer. This issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

mm/damon/core: fix unconditionally skip last region

2026-09-18T15:20:14Z

Once quota set, the charge_{target,addr}_from unconditionally skips and resets at the last region of the tracked target, so the last region can be skipped even when it has not been processed. Example: 1. Target has 2 regions: R1 (0-100 bytes) and R2 (100-200 bytes). 2. Quota is configured to process only 100 bytes per window. 3. Window 1: Processes R1 (0-100). Quota is full. charge_{target, addr}_from is saved at (Target, 100). 4. Window 2: The loop reaches R2. Because R2 is damon_last_region(t), the old code unconditionally returns true, skipping R2 entirely and resetting the charge_{target,addr}_from. Result: R2 is permanently skipped even though it has never been processed. However, it is important to note that this is a very minor issue. This is because it is triggered only when the previous window saved/kept charge_{target,addr}_from, and in the next window, all regions except the last region were skipped by damos_skip_charged_region(). Fix this by only resetting the charge_{target,addr}_from when last region is reached, only skipping when it is applied or cannot split.

mm/damon/vaddr: avoid hw-driven pte updates during damon_hugetlb_mkold()

2026-09-18T15:20:14Z

damon_hugetlb_mkold() reads the page table entry into a local variable, unsets the accessed bit in the variable, and updates the page table entry with the updated variable value. If hardware updates the same page table entry in parallel, the hw updates could be lost. For example, hardware-updated dirty bits might be lost. Avoid the parallel updates by clearing the page table entry when reading it together, using huge_ptep_get_and_clear(). If a parallel write to the memory is made after the clearing, the hw will see the page table entry is cleared, trigger page fault and wait until it is handled. The page fault handling will wait for damon_hugetlb_mkold() due to the page table lock. Because hugetlbfs is an in-memory file system and hugetlb pages cannot be reclaimed, no critical issue is expected to my best knowledge. But definitely this is a nasty bug that should be fixed sooner rather than later. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

mm/damon/core: allow esz to be set to zero

2026-09-18T15:20:13Z

When the temporal quota goal tuner determines that the goal has been achieved (score >= 10000), it sets esz_bp to zero so that the esz becomes zero. However, damos_set_effective_quota() clamps the esz to min_region_sz when quota->ms is set. This is a minor issue, the main problem is that it doesn't match the description in the documentation, which state that if the goal has already been [over-]achieved, the quota will be set to zero. Fix this by set quota (esz) as minimum as possible.

mm/damon/ops-common: use a page-aligned address in damon_ptep_mkold()

2026-09-18T15:20:13Z

__damon_va_prepare_access_check() picks a random byte address within the region and stores it in r->sampling_addr. damon_va_mkold() passes it into a page table walk, which hands it to damon_ptep_mkold() as the address of the page to sample: damon_va_mkold(mm, r->sampling_addr) damon_va_walk_page_range(mm, addr, addr + 1) damon_mkold_pmd_entry() damon_ptep_mkold(pte, vma, addr) ptep_test_and_clear_young(vma, addr, pte) mmu_notifier_clear_young(mm, addr, addr + PAGE_SIZE) For arm64, before commit 6f0e1142173a ("arm64: mm: support batch clearing of the young flag for large folios"), the contpte helper walked exactly CONT_PTES entries from the aligned-down page table pointer and used @addr only to pass down to each entry, so an unaligned value was harmless: ptep = contpte_align_down(ptep); addr = ALIGN_DOWN(addr, CONT_PTE_SIZE); for (i = 0; i < CONT_PTES; i++, ptep++, addr += PAGE_SIZE) Now the range to walk is derived from @addr instead: end = addr + nr * PAGE_SIZE, rounded up to CONT_PTE_SIZE. For a sample in the last page of a contpte block, the sub-page offset puts end just past the block boundary, so the round-up lands a whole block further and the walk clears PTE_AF in CONT_PTES entries beyond the sampled block. For the last block in a page table page, those entries are past the end of that page, so the walk writes into the page that follows. Triggered by the full 7.1/7.2 kernel selftest suite on arm64 (EC2 c/m6g.4xlarge). The kernel sometimes crashes at or shortly after the DAMON test. What the overrun does depends on the page that happens to follow the page table, so there is no single signature. If that page is read-only, the write faults in the sampling path itself: Unable to handle kernel write to read-only memory at virtual address ffff0003c5d2d000 FSC = 0x0f: level 3 permission fault CM = 0, WnR = 1, TnD = 0, TagAccess = 0 CPU: 10 UID: 0 PID: 3487 Comm: kdamond.2 pc : contpte_test_and_clear_young_ptes+0x70/0xc0 lr : damon_ptep_mkold+0x1e8/0x1f8 Call trace: contpte_test_and_clear_young_ptes+0x70/0xc0 (P) damon_mkold_pmd_entry+0x150/0x170 walk_pmd_range+0x110/0x2b0 walk_pud_range+0x10c/0x208 walk_pgd_range+0x134/0x258 __walk_page_range+0x98/0x1b0 walk_page_range_vma_unsafe+0x90/0x148 walk_page_range_vma+0x28/0x40 damon_va_walk_page_range+0x114/0x2b8 damon_va_prepare_access_checks+0xec/0x1a8 kdamond_fn+0x534/0x770 kthread+0x128/0x138 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 Otherwise the page is writable, the PTE_AF clearing succeeds silently and the damage only surfaces later, in whatever happened to own the page, so the backtrace is unrelated to DAMON and differs between runs. Pass a page-aligned address to the ptep_test_and_clear_young() call in damon_ptep_mkold(), which is the only place DAMON can reach contpte_test_and_clear_young_ptes() from. Nothing else sees the aligned address, and r->sampling_addr itself is left as is, so the sampling and region bookkeeping semantics are unchanged.

treewide: refresh kmalloc_obj() conversions

2026-09-05T04:37:00Z

This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc() family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's "--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control flow indicator I could find. Build tested allmodconfig on x86, arm64, arm, loongarch, mips, powerpc, riscv, and s390 with no new warnings.

It replaces generic do_mseal() usage outside the syscall with a dedicated mseal_mmap_page_zero() helper for MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, eliminates mm_struct parameters to enforce that sealing applies only to current->mm, and streamlines overall logic and comments with no functional changes intended. - "mm/vmscan: fix swappiness=max and clean up per-node proactive reclaim" (Ridong Chen) Resolve reclaim behavior bugs and clean up function parameters across memory reclaim paths It fixes swappiness=max in both standard reclaim and MGLRU so unswappable anonymous memory no longer falls back to evicting page cache, ensures reclaim_store() returns accurate error codes instead of collapsing all failures into -EAGAIN, and removes the obsolete gfp_mask parameter from __node_reclaim(). - "mm: mincore: misc cleanups" (Kefeng Wang) Clean up and simplifies the mincore code. Most importantly, it removes the historical special behavior that always reports VM_PFNMAP pages as non-resident. - "mm/huge_memory: drop dead split helper variants" (Kiryl Shutsemau) Two trivial cleanups in the folio split API - "mm/damon: fix uninitialized DAMOS field and kunit exec expectation bugs" (SJ Park) Resolve minor operational and testing bugs in DAMON identified by Sashiko. It initializes the damos->last_applied field to prevent occasional efficiency degradation and fixes invalid memory accesses in DAMON KUnit tests during test failure handling. - "cleanup for stable_page_flags()" (Jinjiang Tu) Clean up and refactor stable_page_flags() used by /proc/kpageflags without altering functionality. It uses BIT_ULL() to prevent shift-overflow warnings on 64-bit flag bits, converts folio-specific flag checks to standard folio_test_*() helpers, and removes redundant CONFIG_PAGE_IDLE_FLAG handling. - "Batch unmap of uffd-wp file folios" (Dev Jain) Extend batched folio unmapping support to file folios within userfaultfd write-protect (uffd-wp) VMAs by adding batching capabilities to pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed(). This removes special-case restrictions on uffd-wp VMAs in try_to_unmap_one(), significantly simplifying the function's control flow and complexity. - "mm/early_ioremap: clarify and clean up early_ioremap_reset()" (Sang-Heon Jeon) Clarify and clean up the architecture-specific usage of __late_set_fixmap() and __late_clear_fixmap() after early_ioremap_reset() It adds explicit documentation regarding when early_ioremap_reset() must be called and removes redundant macro definitions and reset calls in the RISC-V and ARM64 architectures. - "mm: fix reclaim storms in defrag_mode" (Johannes Weiner) Address severe performance regressions, swap storms, and spurious OOMs caused by vm.defrag_mode=1 under high memory pressure in Meta production It updates the page allocator slowpath so non-movable allocation requests actively trigger direct reclaim and direct compaction at pageblock_order scale, allowing them to claim whole pageblocks rather than spinning unproductively. - "zram: lockmap tweaks" (Sebastian Siewior) Optimize and fix lockdep tracking for zram devices by consolidating per-entry lockmaps and isolate lock classes across multiple instances This reduces memory overhead by replacing per-entry lockdep_map instances with a single map per struct zram, and assigns a dynamic lock_class_key to each instance to prevent false deadlock reports when different zram devices are backed by distinct filesystems. * tag 'mm-stable-2026-08-18-18-39' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm: (501 commits) selftests/mm: thuge-gen: fix test_shmget() for PAGE_SIZE check selftests/mm: unpoison pages in memory-failure teardown mm/shmem: downgrade final i_blocks check in shmem_evict_inode() to pr_warn() mm/khugepaged: replace mutex_lock/mutex_unlock usage with guard macro mm/zsmalloc: fix release order of locks in zs_page_migrate() Documentation: zram: remove sections numbering ksm: stop iterating VMAs when ksm_test_exit returns true mm: fold userfaultfd_rwp() to false without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE mm/migrate: report RCU-tasks quiescent states in migrate_pages_batch() zram: use a custom key for each zram object zram: move lockmap to be per-zram instead per table selftests/mm: fix gup_longterm EINVAL error message mm: page_alloc: fix non-movable reclaim storm in defrag_mode mm: page_alloc: move capture_control to the page allocator mm: compaction: support non-movable compaction for pageblock requests mm: page_alloc: __GFP_FS lockdep annotation for direct compaction hugetlb: evaluate subpool free state while locked mm/damon: remove trailing semicolons after function definitions mm/damon/ops-common: prevent migration fallback to non-target nodes mm/damon: update outdated comment about DAMOS filter handling ...

mm/damon: remove trailing semicolons after function definitions

2026-08-07T01:57:23Z

Three function definitions terminate with '};' instead of '}', which is unnecessary and inconsistent with kernel coding style: - damon_pa_initcall() in paddr.c - damon_va_initcall() in vaddr.c - damos_get_some_mem_psi_total() in core.c No functional change intended.
