Subject: [RFC PATCH 06/10] mm/damon/core: add damon_merge_regions_of() debug_sanity check
Date: Sat, 21 Feb 2026 11:36:23 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260221193629.19332-7-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260221193629.19332-1-sj@kernel.org>
damon_merge_regions_of() should be called only after aggregation is
finished and therefore each region's nr_accesses and nr_accesses_bp
match. There were bugs that broke the assumption, during development of
online DAMON parameter updates and monitoring results handling changes.
Add a sanity check for that under CONFIG_DAMON_DEBUG_SANITY.
