Subject: [PATCH v2] mm/damon/stat: avoid overflow in estimated_memory_bandwidth calculation
Date: Tue,  3 Nov 2026 11:40:34 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261103034034.7978-1-gkwang@linx-info.com> (raw)

estimated_memory_bandwidth is calculated by access_bytes *
USEC_PER_MSEC * MSEC_PER_SEC (= USEC_PER_SEC) / aggr_interval,
and users read it via
/sys/module/damon_stat/parameters/estimated_memory_bandwidth.

On 32-bit systems, access_bytes * USEC_PER_SEC overflows unsigned
long once access_bytes exceeds about 4294 (U32_MAX / USEC_PER_SEC),
so users get a wrong value.

Fix it by doing the calculation in 64-bit and splitting the division
into quotient and remainder.

The issue was reproduced on a 32-bit system (qemu-system-i386): the
parameter estimated_memory_bandwidth reported 362 instead of the
expected 1926150; with the fix, the value matches the expectation.

Fixes: fabdd1e911da ("mm/damon/stat: calculate and expose estimated memory bandwidth")

Changes in v2:
- v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20261101180001.167198-1-gkwang@linx-info.com
- Clarify the issue and its impact on users.
- Add Cc: stable@.
- Rename variable bytes_per_interval to bytes_per_us.
- Use USEC_PER_SEC instead of 'USEC_PER_MSEC * MSEC_PER_SEC'.
