Subject: [PATCH] mm/damon/core: reinitialize when passed_sample_intervals occurred overflow
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 14:07:35 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260116050737.21407-1-rgbi3307@gmail.com> (raw)
To concisely explain the variables that calculate the time flow in
kdamond_fn(), we write them as follows:
unsigned long ctx->passed_sample_intervals: c.psi
unsigned long ctx->next_ops_update_sis: c.nui
Normal:
[-----------------+---------------+-------------------+----------]
c.psi c.nui
---------------> next c.nui
if (c.psi >= c.nui) ---------->
Overflow(OF):
[-----------------+---------------+-------------------+----------]
c.psi c.nui
-------------------->
if (c.psi >= c.nui) ---> OF
[-----+-----------
next c.nui
Overflow(OF) occurred if (c.psi >= next c.nui):
Overflow may occur as shown above. In this case, re-run kdamond_init_ctx()
to reinitialize the relevant variables.
