Subject: [RFC PATCH 5/9] mm/damon/vaddr: respect folio end for DAMOS_STAT
Date: Sat,  1 Aug 2026 10:35:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260801173554.94710-6-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260801173554.94710-1-sj@kernel.org>

For applying DAMOS_STAT action to a region, DAMON virtual address space
operation set (vaddr) calls walk_page_range[_vma]() for the region.  The
pmd walk entry function, namely damon_va_stat_pmd_entry(), applies DAMOS
filters to folios of addresses of the region in the pmd.  It starts from
the walking address and advances the address by the size of the folio of
the address until it goes out of the pmd or the region.

Let's suppose it is for the first pmd of the region, and the region
start address is in the middle of a large folio.  Also, the next folios
are small.  Then, some of the next folios could be skipped.  Fix the
issue by advancing the address to exactly the start address of the next
folio.

The user impact is that the DAMOS_STAT-based page level monitoring
results become inaccurate.  Since the page level monitoring is supposed
to provide relatively high precision, this is definitely a problem.  It
is arguably not critical since it is only monitoring quality
degradation.

The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
