Nice and effective fix! Nevertheless, I think aggregation interval smaller
than sample interval is just a wrong input. How about adding the check in
damon_set_attrs()'s already existing attributes validation, like below?

Yes, move the check into damon_set_attrs() is better

Thank you for this kind comment!

, and it seems that
we could move all the check into it, and drop the old_attrs check in
damon_update_monitoring_results(), what's you option?

In my humble opinion, the validation for monitoring results and for general
monitoring could be different. For example, zero aggreation/sampling intervals
might make sense for fixed granularity working set size monitoring. Hence, I'd
prefer keeping those checks in the damon_update_monitoring_results().


ok, will keep that, I check the damon_set_attrs() called by lru_sort/reclaim monitor and sysfs/dbgfs, the above changes should be ok, maybe missing something, the working set size monitoring is not public for now?



Thanks,
SJ
