If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 76b7069bcc89dec33f03eb08abee165d0306b754 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: SeongJae Park <sj@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 7 Oct 2023 20:04:32 +0000 Subject: mm/damon/sysfs: check DAMOS regions update progress from before_terminate() From: SeongJae Park <sj@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 76b7069bcc89dec33f03eb08abee165d0306b754 upstream. DAMON_SYSFS can receive DAMOS tried regions update request while kdamond is already out of the main loop and before_terminate callback (damon_sysfs_before_terminate() in this case) is not yet called. And damon_sysfs_handle_cmd() can further be finished before the callback is invoked. Then, damon_sysfs_before_terminate() unlocks damon_sysfs_lock, which is not locked by anyone. This happens because the callback function assumes damon_sysfs_cmd_request_callback() should be called before it. Check if the assumption was true before doing the unlock, to avoid this problem.
