When the ctx->adaptive_targets list is empty, I did some test on monitor_on interface like this. # cat /sys/kernel/debug/damon/target_ids # # echo on > /sys/kernel/debug/damon/monitor_on # damon: kdamond (5390) starts Though the ctx->adaptive_targets list is empty, but the kthread_run still be called, and the kdamond.x thread still be created, this is meaningless. So there adds a judgment in 'dbgfs_monitor_on_write', if the ctx->adaptive_targets list is empty, return -EINVAL.
