Subject: [PATCH 2/4] mm/damon/sysfs: cleanup attrs subdirs on context dir setup failure
Date: Wed, 24 Dec 2025 18:30:35 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251225023043.18579-3-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251225023043.18579-1-sj@kernel.org>
When a context DAMON sysfs directory setup is failed after setup of
attrs/ directory, subdirectories of attrs/ directory are not cleaned up.
As a result, DAMON sysfs interface is nearly broken until the system
reboots, and the memory for the unremoved directory is leaked.
Cleanup the directories under such failures.
Fixes: c951cd3b8901 ("mm/damon: implement a minimal stub for sysfs-based DAMON interface")
