Subject: [RFC PATCH 9/9] mm/damon/core: handle extreme memory state in get_in_active_mem_bp()
Date: Sat,  1 Aug 2026 10:35:52 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260801173554.94710-10-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260801173554.94710-1-sj@kernel.org>

damon_get_intervals_adaptation_bp() uses the sum of the active and
inactive memory amount as a denominator.  In an extreme and unlikely
environment, active and inactive memory might be zero.  In this case,
hence, it results in a divide by zero problem.  Avoid it by changing the
denominator to one if it is zero, before it is being used.

The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
