Subject: [PATCH 4/9] mm/damon/stat: avoid 32-bit overflow in idle percentiles
Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2026 07:07:51 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261102150757.93058-5-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261102150757.93058-1-sj@kernel.org>
From: Aveline Noir <jm5905938@gmail.com>
On 32-bit, accounted_bytes * 100 can wrap before division by total_sz.
Some entries in memory_idle_ms_percentiles then keep their old values
instead of being updated.
For example, a 256 MiB i386 QEMU guest reported p0=19200 ms, but p50 and
p100 were both zero. The issue was also shared with another mail [1].
Cast accounted_bytes to u64 before multiplying and use div64_ul() for
the division. Compute the percentage once per region.
