Subject: [PATCH] mm/damon/core: disallow non-power of two min_region_sz on damon_start()
Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2026 14:36:36 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260411213638.77768-1-sj@kernel.org> (raw)

Commit d8f867fa0825 ("mm/damon: add damon_ctx->min_sz_region")
introduced a bug that allows unaligned DAMON region address ranges.
Commit c80f46ac228b ("mm/damon/core: disallow non-power of two
min_region_sz") fixed it, but only for damon_commit_ctx() use case.
Still, DAMON sysfs interface can emit non-power of two min_region_sz via
damon_start().  Fix the path by adding the is_power_of_2() check on
damon_start().

The issue was discovered by sashiko [1].
