Subject: [PATCH] mm/damon/tests/core-kunit: add test for unconditionally skipping the last region
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 19:37:35 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831113735.3349-1-aethernet65535@gmail.com> (raw)
Commit 50585192bc2e ("mm/damon/schemes: skip already charged targets and
regions") introduced a minor issue that causes the last region to be
skipped before it is 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.
Add a test to prevent this regression in the future.
