Could you please share just a brief more detail about above cool output, e.g., just the name of the tool you used, so that others can learn it from your awesome commit message? > > Fixes: 17ccae8bb5c9 ("mm/damon: add kunit tests") > Fixes: f4c978b6594b ("mm/damon/core-test: add a test for damon_update_monitoring_results()") > Signed-off-by: Jinjie Ruan <ruanjinjie@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- > mm/damon/core-test.h | 3 +++ > 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/mm/damon/core-test.h b/mm/damon/core-test.h > index 6cc8b245586d..255f8c925c00 100644 > --- a/mm/damon/core-test.h > +++ b/mm/damon/core-test.h > @@ -34,6 +34,7 @@ static void damon_test_regions(struct kunit *test) > KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(test, 0u, damon_nr_regions(t)); > > damon_free_target(t); > + damon_free_region(r); There is damon_destroy_region() function, which simply calls damon_del_region() and damon_free_region(). Unless there is needs to access the region before removing from the region, doing memory return together via the function is recommended. And this test code calls damon_del_region() just beofre above KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(). Hence, I think replacing the damon_del_region() call with damon_destroy_region() rather than calling damon_free_region() may be simpler and shorter.
