Subject: + mm-damon-vaddr-kunit-check-region-count-in-three_regions-test.patch added to mm-new branch
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2026 21:34:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260718043453.A8B831F000E9@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The patch titled
Subject: mm/damon/vaddr-kunit: check region count in three_regions test
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch. Its filename is
mm-damon-vaddr-kunit-check-region-count-in-three_regions-test.patch
This patch will shortly appear at
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-damon-vaddr-kunit-check-region-count-in-three_regions-test.patch
This patch will later appear in the mm-new branch at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Note, mm-new is a provisional staging ground for work-in-progress
patches, and acceptance into mm-new is a notification for others take
notice and to finish up reviews. Please do not hesitate to respond to
review feedback and post updated versions to replace or incrementally
fixup patches in mm-new.
The mm-new branch of mm.git is not included in linux-next
If a few days of testing in mm-new is successful, the patch will me moved
into mm.git's mm-unstable branch, which is included in linux-next
Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's
*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***
The -mm tree is included into linux-next via various
branches at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
and is updated there most days

Subject: mm/damon/vaddr-kunit: check region count in three_regions test
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2026 17:14:37 -0700
damon_do_test_apply_three_regions() iterates regions after
damon_set_regions() call assuming the function would succeed at setting
the number of regions the same to the expected one. It might have failed.
In this case, __nth_region_of() in the iteration could return NULL and
NULL dereference can happen in the test.
The consequent user impact (NULL dereference) is quite bad. The realistic
user impact would be limited, though. It would affect only test run
setups.
Fix it by testing if the number of regions was also changed as expected
and exit early for the failure.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
