Subject: mm/damon/paddr: respect folio end for DAMOS actions except STAT
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 06:18:44 -0700

A few functions for applying DAMOS actions including pageout, lru_[de]prio and migrate_{hot,cold} in DAMON physical address space operation set (paddr) collect folios of the given region by getting the folios of region-internal addresses. Then, those functions apply the action to the collected folios at once. The collection starts from the region start address and advances the address by the size of the folio of the address until it goes out of the region. If the start address is in the middle of a large folio, and if the next folios are small, some of the next folios could be skipped. Fix the issue by advancing the address to exactly the start address of the next folio.

The user impact is that DAMOS action is applied to less than expected amount of memory. Given the best effort nature of DAMON, it is no big problem, but it is clearly a bug that is better to be fixed.

The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.
