From 6376a824595607e99d032a39ba3394988b4fce96 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: SeongJae Park Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2023 17:50:18 +0000 Subject: mm/damon/core: make damon_start() waits until kdamond_fn() starts The cleanup tasks of kdamond threads including reset of corresponding DAMON context's ->kdamond field and decrease of global nr_running_ctxs counter is supposed to be executed by kdamond_fn(). However, commit 0f91d13366a4 ("mm/damon: simplify stop mechanism") made neither damon_start() nor damon_stop() ensure the corresponding kdamond has started the execution of kdamond_fn(). As a result, the cleanup can be skipped if damon_stop() is called fast enough after the previous damon_start(). Especially the skipped reset of ->kdamond could cause a use-after-free. Fix it by waiting for start of kdamond_fn() execution from damon_start().
