From b3723b596b548c837a766aae3553c14a7b15af2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liew Rui Yan Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 06:47:38 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm/damon/core: fix unconditionally skip last region Once quota set, the charge_{target,addr}_from unconditionally skips and resets at the last region of the tracked target, so the last region can be skipped even when it has not been 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. However, it is important to note that this is a very minor issue. This is because it is triggered only when the previous window saved/kept charge_{target,addr}_from, and in the next window, all regions except the last region were skipped by damos_skip_charged_region(). Fix this by only resetting the charge_{target,addr}_from when last region is reached, only skipping when it is applied or cannot split.
