Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH 1/4] mm/damon/core: handle NULL ctx parameter in damon_call()
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2026 03:58:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260813035817.8A4BB1F000E9@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260813035001.97364-2-sj@kernel.org>

> When NULL damon_ctx pointer parameter is passed, damon_call() could do
> NULL dereference.  The caller is responsible to avoid that.  It is easy
> to forget, and there are many damon_call() callers.  Meanwhile,
> damon_call() is never meant to be performance critical.  It uses mutex
> and completion.  Add the NULL pointer check inside damon_call() so that
> callers can pass the parameter without NULL checks.
