Subject: [PATCH v5 0/2] mm/damon: fix the temporal goal tuner's size quota conversion
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 01:48:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928084816.5575-1-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Donggeun Yoo <donggeunyoo.kernel@gmail.com>
damos_goal_tune_esz_bp_temporal() hands the size quota to
damos_set_effective_quota() through quota->esz_bp in basis points, and
the multiply that gets it there is unchecked. On 32-bit it wraps above
429496 bytes, and a wrapped product below 10000 divides to a zero
effective quota. damos_quota_is_full() is then true on the first test
of every charge window, so the scheme makes no progress for as long as
the goal is unachieved.
Patch 1 bounds the conversion. Patch 2 pins the boundary in the core
kunit suite, where the new test would fail without patch 1 on any word
size.
Changes in v5
- v4: https://lore.kernel.org/20260923002600.1825448-1-donggeunyoo.kernel@gmail.com
- Collec R-b: from SJ for patch 1.
- Rebase to the latest mm-new.
Changes in v4, from SJ Park's review of v2; the code is unchanged:
- patch 1: drop the 256 MiB mention
- patch 1: say what the user sees before saying the setup is unlikely
- patch 1: cut the closing paragraph to "Bound the multiply."
- patch 2: unchanged, and carries the Reviewed-by
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/damon/20260920122411.610213-1-donggeunyoo.kernel@gmail.com/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/damon/20260920023111.2466265-1-donggeunyoo.kernel@gmail.com/
v3 was posted before the discussion on v2 had finished. My mistake;
this version was held until the thread settled.
DAMON kunit on x86_64: 39 tests, all passing with both patches; 38
passing and damos_test_esz_goal_temporal failing with patch 2 alone.
