Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y] mm/damon/tests/vaddr-kunit: handle alloc failures on damon_do_test_apply_three_regions()
Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2026 21:03:56 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260106020356.2904257-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026010548-handrail-gallantly-8186@gregkh>
From: SeongJae Park <sj@kernel.org>
[ Upstream commit 2b22d0fcc6320ba29b2122434c1d2f0785fb0a25 ]
damon_do_test_apply_three_regions() is assuming all dynamic memory
allocation in it will succeed. Those are indeed likely in the real use
cases since those allocations are too small to fail, but theoretically
those could fail. In the case, inappropriate memory access can happen.
Fix it by appropriately cleanup pre-allocated memory and skip the
execution of the remaining tests in the failure cases.
