Subject: mm/damon: adjust isolated pages stat for DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD}
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 07:04:03 -0700

Callers of migrate_pages() should adjust NR_MIGRATED_{ANON,FILE} for
isolations and putback of the folios.  That for migration succeeded folios
is done by migrate_pages(), in migrate_folio_done().  That for MR_DEMOTION
reason is an exception though.

DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} call migrate_pages() but mistakenly not doing the
stat adjustment.  As a result, use of DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} could
corrupt the stat.  It could confuse too_many_isolated(), make compaction
and reclaim to behave in unexpected ways.  The stat corruption can be
reproduced and confirmed using DAMON user-space tool [1] on NUMA systems,
like below.

    $ numactl --hardware
    available: 2 nodes (0-1)
    [...]
    $ sudo ./damo start --damos_action migrate_hot 1
    $ sudo cat /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh
    $ sudo dmesg
    [...]
    [   80.215554] vmstat_refresh: nr_isolated_anon -5578
    [   80.216842] vmstat_refresh: nr_isolated_file -34400

This issue was discovered [2] by Sashiko.
