The patch titled Subject: mm/damon/sysfs: check DAMOS regions update progress from before_terminate() has been added to the -mm mm-hotfixes-unstable branch. Its filename is mm-damon-sysfs-check-damos-regions-update-progress-from-before_terminate.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-damon-sysfs-check-damos-regions-update-progress-from-before_terminate.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-hotfixes-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: SeongJae Park <sj@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/damon/sysfs: check DAMOS regions update progress from before_terminate() Date: Sat, 7 Oct 2023 20:04:32 +0000 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.
