Subject: [PATCH v2 26/44] mm/damon: Stop using vma_mas_store() for maple tree store

From: "Liam R. Howlett" <[email protected]>

Prepare for the removal of the vma_mas_store() function by open coding
the maple tree store in this test code. Set the range of the maple
state and call the store function directly.

But seems this series is not really removing 'vma_mas_store()'. Wouldn't it
better to do the preparation and removal together in a same patch series?

On the latest mm-unstable, vma_mas_store() uses mas_store_prealloc() instead of
mas_store_gfp(). Seems the difference would make no problem to this test code
in most cases, but could I ask the reason for this change?

Also, should we check the return value of mas_store_gfp()?

It does from the all code but the nommu side. The definition is dropped
from the header and c file in "mmap: Convert __vma_adjust() to use vma
iterator" [1].

mas_store_prealloc() expects the maple state to have the necessary
memory to store the value. Using this function is the right way of
storing the range. In fact, we would only need a single node since
these values will be append operations anyways.

I can add this. The only reason we would return an error is on ENOMEM
which seems unlikely here. Again, it is a single node that will be
used. The size is 256B, but it's safer to add the check.

Again, thank you for nice explanation.

You're right. I'd prefer having the check, but I'd not block this for the
trivial nit.
