mm/migrate.c: remove MIGRATE_PFN_LOCKED
MIGRATE_PFN_LOCKED is used to indicate to migrate_vma_prepare() that a source page was already locked during migrate_vma_collect(). If it wasn't then the a second attempt is made to lock the page. However if the first attempt failed it's unlikely a second attempt will succeed, and the retry adds complexity. So clean this up by removing the retry and MIGRATE_PFN_LOCKED flag. Destination pages are also meant to have the MIGRATE_PFN_LOCKED flag set, but nothing actually checks that.

mm: migrate: simplify the file-backed pages validation when migrating its mapping
There is no need to validate the file-backed page's refcount before trying to freeze the page's expected refcount, instead we can rely on the folio_ref_freeze() to validate if the page has the expected refcount before migrating its mapping. Moreover we are always under the page lock when migrating the page mapping, which means nowhere else can remove it from the page cache, so we can remove the xas_load() validation under the i_pages lock.

The two most recent additions have probably been the ability to use pidfds in bpf maps and the usage of pidfds in mm-based syscalls such as process_mrelease() and process_madvise(). The same pattern to turn a pidfd into a struct task exists in two places. One of those places used PIDTYPE_TGID while the other one used PIDTYPE_PID even though it is clearly documented in all pidfd-helpers that pidfds __currently__ only refer to thread-group leaders (subject to change in the future if need be). This isn't a bug per se but has the potential to be one if we allow pidfds to refer to individual threads. If that happens we want to audit all codepaths that make use of them to ensure they can deal with pidfds refering to individual threads. This adds a simple helper to turn a pidfd into a struct task making it easy to grep for such places. Plus, it gets rid of code-duplication" * tag 'pidfd.v5.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: mm: use pidfd_get_task() pid: add pidfd_get_task() helper |

kernel/resource: disallow access to exclusive system RAM regions
virtio-mem dynamically exposes memory inside a device memory region as
system RAM to Linux, coordinating with the hypervisor which parts are
actually "plugged" and consequently usable/accessible.
On the one hand, the virtio-mem driver adds/removes whole memory blocks,
creating/removing busy IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM resources, on the other
hand, it logically (un)plugs memory inside added memory blocks,
dynamically either exposing them to the buddy or hiding them from the
buddy and marking them PG_offline.
In contrast to physical devices, like a DIMM, the virtio-mem driver is
required to actually make use of any of the device-provided memory,
because it performs the handshake with the hypervisor. virtio-mem
memory cannot simply be access via /dev/mem without a driver.
There is no safe way to:
a) Access plugged memory blocks via /dev/mem, as they might contain
unplugged holes or might get silently unplugged by the virtio-mem
driver and consequently turned inaccessible.
b) Access unplugged memory blocks via /dev/mem because the virtio-mem
driver is required to make them actually accessible first.
The virtio-spec states that unplugged memory blocks MUST NOT be written,
and only selected unplugged memory blocks MAY be read. We want to make
sure, this is the case in sane environments -- where the virtio-mem driver
was loaded.
We want to make sure that in a sane environment, nobody "accidentially"
accesses unplugged memory inside the device managed region. For example,
a user might spot a memory region in /proc/iomem and try accessing it via
/dev/mem via gdb or dumping it via something else. By the time the mmap()
happens, the memory might already have been removed by the virtio-mem
driver silently: the mmap() would succeeed and user space might
accidentially access unplugged memory.
So once the driver was loaded and detected the device along the
device-managed region, we just want to disallow any access via /dev/mem to
it.
In an ideal world, we would mark the whole region as busy ("owned by a
driver") and exclude it; however, that would be wrong, as we don't really
have actual system RAM at these ranges added to Linux ("busy system RAM").
Instead, we want to mark such ranges as "not actual busy system RAM but
still soft-reserved and prepared by a driver for future use."
Let's teach iomem_is_exclusive() to reject access to any range with
"IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE", even if not busy and even
if "iomem=relaxed" is set. Introduce EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM to make it
easier for applicable drivers to depend on this setting in their Kconfig.
For now, there are no applicable ranges and we'll modify virtio-mem next
to properly set IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE on the parent resource container it
creates to contain all actual busy system RAM added via
add_memory_driver_managed().

vfs: keep inodes with page cache off the inode shrinker LRU
Historically (pre-2.5), the inode shrinker used to reclaim only empty inodes and skip over those that still contained page cache. This caused problems on highmem hosts: struct inode could put fill lowmem zones before the cache was getting reclaimed in the highmem zones. To address this, the inode shrinker started to strip page cache to facilitate reclaiming lowmem. However, this comes with its own set of problems: the shrinkers may drop actively used page cache just because the inodes are not currently open or dirty - think working with a large git tree. It further doesn't respect cgroup memory protection settings and can cause priority inversions between containers. Nowadays, the page cache also holds non-resident info for evicted cache pages in order to detect refaults. We've come to rely heavily on this data inside reclaim for protecting the cache workingset and driving swap behavior. We also use it to quantify and report workload health through psi. The latter in turn is used for fleet health monitoring, as well as driving automated memory sizing of workloads and containers, proactive reclaim and memory offloading schemes. The consequences of dropping page cache prematurely is that we're seeing subtle and not-so-subtle failures in all of the above-mentioned scenarios, with the workload generally entering unexpected thrashing states while losing the ability to reliably detect it. To fix this on non-highmem systems at least, going back to rotating inodes on the LRU isn't feasible. We've tried (commit |

arm64: Track no early_pgtable_alloc() for kmemleak
After switched page size from 64KB to 4KB on several arm64 servers here,
kmemleak starts to run out of early memory pool due to a huge number of
those early_pgtable_alloc() calls:
kmemleak_alloc_phys()
memblock_alloc_range_nid()
memblock_phys_alloc_range()
early_pgtable_alloc()
init_pmd()
alloc_init_pud()
__create_pgd_mapping()
__map_memblock()
paging_init()
setup_arch()
start_kernel()
Increased the default value of DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_MEM_POOL_SIZE by 4 times
won't be enough for a server with 200GB+ memory. There isn't much
interesting to check memory leaks for those early page tables and those
early memory mappings should not reference to other memory. Hence, no
kmemleak false positives, and we can safely skip tracking those early
allocations from kmemleak like we did in the commit

mm/damon/dbgfs: add adaptive_targets list check before enable monitor_on
When the ctx->adaptive_targets list is empty, I did some test on
monitor_on interface like this.
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/damon/target_ids
#
# echo on > /sys/kernel/debug/damon/monitor_on
# damon: kdamond (5390) starts
Though the ctx->adaptive_targets list is empty, but the kthread_run
still be called, and the kdamond.x thread still be created, this is
meaningless.
So there adds a judgment in 'dbgfs_monitor_on_write', if the
ctx->adaptive_targets list is empty, return -EINVAL.

mm/damon: introduce DAMON-based Reclamation (DAMON_RECLAIM)
This implements a new kernel subsystem that finds cold memory regions
using DAMON and reclaims those immediately. It is intended to be used
as proactive lightweigh reclamation logic for light memory pressure.
For heavy memory pressure, it could be inactivated and fall back to the
traditional page-scanning based reclamation.
It's implemented on top of DAMON framework to use the DAMON-based
Operation Schemes (DAMOS) feature. It utilizes all the DAMOS features
including speed limit, prioritization, and watermarks.
It could be enabled and tuned in boot time via the kernel boot
parameter, and in run time via its module parameters
('/sys/module/damon_reclaim/parameters/') interface.

mm/damon/schemes: activate schemes based on a watermarks mechanism
DAMON-based operation schemes need to be manually turned on and off. In some use cases, however, the condition for turning a scheme on and off would depend on the system's situation. For example, schemes for proactive pages reclamation would need to be turned on when some memory pressure is detected, and turned off when the system has enough free memory. For easier control of schemes activation based on the system situation, this introduces a watermarks-based mechanism. The client can describe the watermark metric (e.g., amount of free memory in the system), watermark check interval, and three watermarks, namely high, mid, and low. If the scheme is deactivated, it only gets the metric and compare that to the three watermarks for every check interval. If the metric is higher than the high watermark, the scheme is deactivated. If the metric is between the mid watermark and the low watermark, the scheme is activated. If the metric is lower than the low watermark, the scheme is deactivated again. This is to allow users fall back to traditional page-granularity mechanisms.

mm/damon/schemes: prioritize regions within the quotas
This makes DAMON apply schemes to regions having higher priority first, if it cannot apply schemes to all regions due to the quotas. The prioritization function should be implemented in the monitoring primitives. Those would commonly calculate the priority of the region using attributes of regions, namely 'size', 'nr_accesses', and 'age'. For example, some primitive would calculate the priority of each region using a weighted sum of 'nr_accesses' and 'age' of the region. The optimal weights would depend on give environments, so this makes those customizable. Nevertheless, the score calculation functions are only encouraged to respect the weights, not mandated.

If the quota is set, DAMOS tries to use only up to the user-defined quota of CPU time within a given time window.

mm/damon/schemes: skip already charged targets and regions
If DAMOS has stopped applying action in the middle of a group of memory regions due to its size quota, it starts the work again from the beginning of the address space in the next charge window. If there is a huge memory region at the beginning of the address space and it fulfills the scheme's target data access pattern always, the action will applied to only the region. This mitigates the case by skipping memory regions that charged in current charge window at the beginning of next charge window.

mm/damon/schemes: implement size quota for schemes application speed control
There could be arbitrarily large memory regions fulfilling the target data access pattern of a DAMON-based operation scheme. In the case, applying the action of the scheme could incur too high overhead. To provide an intuitive way for avoiding it, this implements a feature called size quota. If the quota is set, DAMON tries to apply the action only up to the given amount of memory regions within a given time window.

mm/damon/paddr: support the pageout scheme
Introduction ============ This patchset 1) makes the engine for general data access pattern-oriented memory management (DAMOS) be more useful for production environments, and 2) implements a static kernel module for lightweight proactive reclamation using the engine. Proactive Reclamation --------------------- On general memory over-committed systems, proactively reclaiming cold pages helps saving memory and reducing latency spikes that incurred by the direct reclaim or the CPU consumption of kswapd, while incurring only minimal performance degradation[2]. A Free Pages Reporting[8] based memory over-commit virtualization system would be one more specific use case. In the system, the guest VMs reports their free memory to host, and the host reallocates the reported memory to other guests. As a result, the system's memory utilization can be maximized. However, the guests could be not so memory-frugal, because some kernel subsystems and user-space applications are designed to use as much memory as available. Then, guests would report only small amount of free memory to host, results in poor memory utilization. Running the proactive reclamation in such guests could help mitigating this problem. Google has also implemented this idea and using it in their data center. They further proposed upstreaming it in LSFMM'19, and "the general consensus was that, while this sort of proactive reclaim would be useful for a number of users, the cost of this particular solution was too high to consider merging it upstream"[3]. The cost mainly comes from the coldness tracking. Roughly speaking, the implementation periodically scans the 'Accessed' bit of each page. For the reason, the overhead linearly increases as the size of the memory and the scanning frequency grows. As a result, Google is known to dedicating one CPU for the work. That's a reasonable option to someone like Google, but it wouldn't be so to some others. DAMON and DAMOS: An engine for data access pattern-oriented memory management ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- DAMON[4] is a framework for general data access monitoring. Its adaptive monitoring overhead control feature minimizes its monitoring overhead. It also let the upper-bound of the overhead be configurable by clients, regardless of the size of the monitoring target memory. While monitoring 70 GiB memory of a production system every 5 milliseconds, it consumes less than 1% single CPU time. For this, it could sacrify some of the quality of the monitoring results. Nevertheless, the lower-bound of the quality is configurable, and it uses a best-effort algorithm for better quality. Our test results[5] show the quality is practical enough. From the production system monitoring, we were able to find a 4 KiB region in the 70 GiB memory that shows highest access frequency. We normally don't monitor the data access pattern just for fun but to improve something like memory management. Proactive reclamation is one such usage. For such general cases, DAMON provides a feature called DAMon-based Operation Schemes (DAMOS)[6]. It makes DAMON an engine for general data access pattern oriented memory management. Using this, clients can ask DAMON to find memory regions of specific data access pattern and apply some memory management action (e.g., page out, move to head of the LRU list, use huge page, ...). We call the request 'scheme'. Proactive Reclamation on top of DAMON/DAMOS ------------------------------------------- Therefore, by using DAMON for the cold pages detection, the proactive reclamation's monitoring overhead issue can be solved. Actually, we previously implemented a version of proactive reclamation using DAMOS and achieved noticeable improvements with our evaluation setup[5]. Nevertheless, it more for a proof-of-concept, rather than production uses. It supports only virtual address spaces of processes, and require additional tuning efforts for given workloads and the hardware. For the tuning, we introduced a simple auto-tuning user space tool[8]. Google is also known to using a ML-based similar approach for their fleets[2]. But, making it just works with intuitive knobs in the kernel would be helpful for general users. To this end, this patchset improves DAMOS to be ready for such production usages, and implements another version of the proactive reclamation, namely DAMON_RECLAIM, on top of it. DAMOS Improvements: Aggressiveness Control, Prioritization, and Watermarks -------------------------------------------------------------------------- First of all, the current version of DAMOS supports only virtual address spaces. This patchset makes it supports the physical address space for the page out action. Next major problem of the current version of DAMOS is the lack of the aggressiveness control, which can results in arbitrary overhead. For example, if huge memory regions having the data access pattern of interest are found, applying the requested action to all of the regions could incur significant overhead. It can be controlled by tuning the target data access pattern with manual or automated approaches[2,7]. But, some people would prefer the kernel to just work with only intuitive tuning or default values. For such cases, this patchset implements a safeguard, namely time/size quota. Using this, the clients can specify up to how much time can be used for applying the action, and/or up to how much memory regions the action can be applied within a user-specified time duration. A followup question is, to which memory regions should the action applied within the limits? We implement a simple regions prioritization mechanism for each action and make DAMOS to apply the action to high priority regions first. It also allows clients tune the prioritization mechanism to use different weights for size, access frequency, and age of memory regions. This means we could use not only LRU but also LFU or some fancy algorithms like CAR[9] with lightweight overhead. Though DAMON is lightweight, someone would want to remove even the cold pages monitoring overhead when it is unnecessary. Currently, it should manually turned on and off by clients, but some clients would simply want to turn it on and off based on some metrics like free memory ratio or memory fragmentation. For such cases, this patchset implements a watermarks-based automatic activation feature. It allows the clients configure the metric of their interest, and three watermarks of the metric. If the metric is higher than the high watermark or lower than the low watermark, the scheme is deactivated. If the metric is lower than the mid watermark but higher than the low watermark, the scheme is activated. DAMON-based Reclaim ------------------- Using the improved version of DAMOS, this patchset implements a static kernel module called 'damon_reclaim'. It finds memory regions that didn't accessed for specific time duration and page out. Consuming too much CPU for the paging out operations, or doing pageout too frequently can be critical for systems configuring their swap devices with software-defined in-memory block devices like zram/zswap or total number of writes limited devices like SSDs, respectively. To avoid the problems, the time/size quotas can be configured. Under the quotas, it pages out memory regions that didn't accessed longer first. Also, to remove the monitoring overhead under peaceful situation, and to fall back to the LRU-list based page granularity reclamation when it doesn't make progress, the three watermarks based activation mechanism is used, with the free memory ratio as the watermark metric. For convenient configurations, it provides several module parameters. Using these, sysadmins can enable/disable it, and tune its parameters including the coldness identification time threshold, the time/size quotas and the three watermarks. Evaluation ========== In short, DAMON_RECLAIM with 50ms/s time quota and regions prioritization on v5.15-rc5 Linux kernel with ZRAM swap device achieves 38.58% memory saving with only 1.94% runtime overhead. For this, DAMON_RECLAIM consumes only 4.97% of single CPU time. Setup ----- We evaluate DAMON_RECLAIM to show how each of the DAMOS improvements make effect. For this, we measure DAMON_RECLAIM's CPU consumption, entire system memory footprint, total number of major page faults, and runtime of 24 realistic workloads in PARSEC3 and SPLASH-2X benchmark suites on my QEMU/KVM based virtual machine. The virtual machine runs on an i3.metal AWS instance, has 130GiB memory, and runs a linux kernel built on latest -mm tree[1] plus this patchset. It also utilizes a 4 GiB ZRAM swap device. We repeats the measurement 5 times and use averages. [1] https://github.com/hnaz/linux-mm/tree/v5.15-rc5-mmots-2021-10-13-19-55 Detailed Results ---------------- The results are summarized in the below table. With coldness identification threshold of 5 seconds, DAMON_RECLAIM without the time quota-based speed limit achieves 47.21% memory saving, but incur 4.59% runtime slowdown to the workloads on average. For this, DAMON_RECLAIM consumes about 11.28% single CPU time. Applying time quotas of 200ms/s, 50ms/s, and 10ms/s without the regions prioritization reduces the slowdown to 4.89%, 2.65%, and 1.5%, respectively. Time quota of 200ms/s (20%) makes no real change compared to the quota unapplied version, because the quota unapplied version consumes only 11.28% CPU time. DAMON_RECLAIM's CPU utilization also similarly reduced: 11.24%, 5.51%, and 2.01% of single CPU time. That is, the overhead is proportional to the speed limit. Nevertheless, it also reduces the memory saving because it becomes less aggressive. In detail, the three variants show 48.76%, 37.83%, and 7.85% memory saving, respectively. Applying the regions prioritization (page out regions that not accessed longer first within the time quota) further reduces the performance degradation. Runtime slowdowns and total number of major page faults increase has been 4.89%/218,690% -> 4.39%/166,136% (200ms/s), 2.65%/111,886% -> 1.94%/59,053% (50ms/s), and 1.5%/34,973.40% -> 2.08%/8,781.75% (10ms/s). The runtime under 10ms/s time quota has increased with prioritization, but apparently that's under the margin of error. time quota prioritization memory_saving cpu_util slowdown pgmajfaults overhead N N 47.21% 11.28% 4.59% 194,802% 200ms/s N 48.76% 11.24% 4.89% 218,690% 50ms/s N 37.83% 5.51% 2.65% 111,886% 10ms/s N 7.85% 2.01% 1.5% 34,793.40% 200ms/s Y 50.08% 10.38% 4.39% 166,136% 50ms/s Y 38.58% 4.97% 1.94% 59,053% 10ms/s Y 3.63% 1.73% 2.08% 8,781.75% Baseline and Complete Git Trees =============================== The patches are based on the latest -mm tree (v5.15-rc5-mmots-2021-10-13-19-55).

mm/damon/dbgfs: support physical memory monitoring
This makes the 'damon-dbgfs' to support the physical memory monitoring, in addition to the virtual memory monitoring. Users can do the physical memory monitoring by writing a special keyword, 'paddr' to the 'target_ids' debugfs file. Then, DAMON will check the special keyword and configure the monitoring context to run with the primitives for the physical address space. Unlike the virtual memory monitoring, the monitoring target region will not be automatically set. Therefore, users should also set the monitoring target address region using the 'init_regions' debugfs file. Also, note that the physical memory monitoring will not automatically terminated. The user should explicitly turn off the monitoring by writing 'off' to the 'monitor_on' debugfs file.

mm/damon/dbgfs: allow users to set initial monitoring target regions
Patch series "DAMON: Support Physical Memory Address Space Monitoring:.
DAMON currently supports only virtual address spaces monitoring. It can
be easily extended for various use cases and address spaces by
configuring its monitoring primitives layer to use appropriate
primitives implementations, though. This patchset implements monitoring
primitives for the physical address space monitoring using the
structure.
The first 3 patches allow the user space users manually set the
monitoring regions. The 1st patch implements the feature in the
'damon-dbgfs'. Then, patches for adding a unit tests (the 2nd patch)
and updating the documentation (the 3rd patch) follow.
Following 4 patches implement the physical address space monitoring
primitives. The 4th patch makes some primitive functions for the
virtual address spaces primitives reusable. The 5th patch implements
the physical address space monitoring primitives. The 6th patch links
the primitives to the 'damon-dbgfs'. Finally, 7th patch documents this
new features.
This patch (of 7):
Some 'damon-dbgfs' users would want to monitor only a part of the entire
virtual memory address space. The program interface users in the kernel
space could use '->before_start()' callback or set the regions inside
the context struct as they want, but 'damon-dbgfs' users cannot.
For that reason, this introduces a new debugfs file called
'init_region'. 'damon-dbgfs' users can specify which initial monitoring
target address regions they want by writing special input to the file.
The input should describe each region in each line in the below form:
<pid> <start address> <end address>
Note that the regions will be updated to cover entire memory mapped
regions after a 'regions update interval' is passed. If you want the
regions to not be updated after the initial setting, you could set the
interval as a very long time, say, a few decades.

mm/damon/schemes: implement statistics feature
To tune the DAMON-based operation schemes, knowing how many and how large regions are affected by each of the schemes will be helful. Those stats could be used for not only the tuning, but also monitoring of the working set size and the number of regions, if the scheme does not change the program behavior too much. For the reason, this implements the statistics for the schemes. The total number and size of the regions that each scheme is applied are exported to users via '->stat_count' and '->stat_sz' of 'struct damos'. Admins can also check the number by reading 'schemes' debugfs file. The last two integers now represents the stats. To allow collecting the stats without changing the program behavior, this also adds new scheme action, 'DAMOS_STAT'. Note that 'DAMOS_STAT' is not only making no memory operation actions, but also does not reset the age of regions.

mm/damon/vaddr: support DAMON-based Operation Schemes
This makes DAMON's default primitives for virtual address spaces to
support DAMON-based Operation Schemes (DAMOS) by implementing actions
application functions and registering it to the monitoring context. The
implementation simply links 'madvise()' for related DAMOS actions. That
is, 'madvise(MADV_WILLNEED)' is called for 'WILLNEED' DAMOS action and
similar for other actions ('COLD', 'PAGEOUT', 'HUGEPAGE', 'NOHUGEPAGE').
So, the kernel space DAMON users can now use the DAMON-based
optimizations with only small amount of code.

mm/damon/core: implement DAMON-based Operation Schemes (DAMOS)
In many cases, users might use DAMON for simple data access aware memory
management optimizations such as applying an operation scheme to a
memory region of a specific size having a specific access frequency for
a specific time. For example, "page out a memory region larger than 100
MiB but having a low access frequency more than 10 minutes", or "Use THP
for a memory region larger than 2 MiB having a high access frequency for
more than 2 seconds".
Most simple form of the solution would be doing offline data access
pattern profiling using DAMON and modifying the application source code
or system configuration based on the profiling results. Or, developing
a daemon constructed with two modules (one for access monitoring and the
other for applying memory management actions via mlock(), madvise(),
sysctl, etc) is imaginable.
To avoid users spending their time for implementation of such simple
data access monitoring-based operation schemes, this makes DAMON to
handle such schemes directly. With this change, users can simply
specify their desired schemes to DAMON. Then, DAMON will automatically
apply the schemes to the user-specified target processes.
Each of the schemes is composed with conditions for filtering of the
target memory regions and desired memory management action for the
target. Specifically, the format is::
<min/max size> <min/max access frequency> <min/max age> <action>
The filtering conditions are size of memory region, number of accesses
to the region monitored by DAMON, and the age of the region. The age of
region is incremented periodically but reset when its addresses or
access frequency has significantly changed or the action of a scheme was
applied. For the action, current implementation supports a few of
madvise()-like hints, ``WILLNEED``, ``COLD``, ``PAGEOUT``, ``HUGEPAGE``,
and ``NOHUGEPAGE``.
Because DAMON supports various address spaces and application of the
actions to a monitoring target region is dependent to the type of the
target address space, the application code should be implemented by each
primitives and registered to the framework. Note that this only
implements the framework part. Following commit will implement the
action applications for virtual address spaces primitives.

mm/damon/core: account age of target regions
Patch series "Implement Data Access Monitoring-based Memory Operation Schemes". Introduction ============ DAMON[1] can be used as a primitive for data access aware memory management optimizations. For that, users who want such optimizations should run DAMON, read the monitoring results, analyze it, plan a new memory management scheme, and apply the new scheme by themselves. Such efforts will be inevitable for some complicated optimizations. However, in many other cases, the users would simply want the system to apply a memory management action to a memory region of a specific size having a specific access frequency for a specific time. For example, "page out a memory region larger than 100 MiB keeping only rare accesses more than 2 minutes", or "Do not use THP for a memory region larger than 2 MiB rarely accessed for more than 1 seconds". To make the works easier and non-redundant, this patchset implements a new feature of DAMON, which is called Data Access Monitoring-based Operation Schemes (DAMOS). Using the feature, users can describe the normal schemes in a simple way and ask DAMON to execute those on its own. [1] https://damonitor.github.io Evaluations =========== DAMOS is accurate and useful for memory management optimizations. An experimental DAMON-based operation scheme for THP, 'ethp', removes 76.15% of THP memory overheads while preserving 51.25% of THP speedup. Another experimental DAMON-based 'proactive reclamation' implementation, 'prcl', reduces 93.38% of residential sets and 23.63% of system memory footprint while incurring only 1.22% runtime overhead in the best case (parsec3/freqmine). NOTE that the experimental THP optimization and proactive reclamation are not for production but only for proof of concepts. Please refer to the showcase web site's evaluation document[1] for detailed evaluation setup and results. [1] https://damonitor.github.io/doc/html/v34/vm/damon/eval.html Long-term Support Trees ----------------------- For people who want to test DAMON but using LTS kernels, there are another couple of trees based on two latest LTS kernels respectively and containing the 'damon/master' backports. - For v5.4.y: https://git.kernel.org/sj/h/damon/for-v5.4.y - For v5.10.y: https://git.kernel.org/sj/h/damon/for-v5.10.y Sequence Of Patches =================== The 1st patch accounts age of each region. The 2nd patch implements the core of the DAMON-based operation schemes feature. The 3rd patch makes the default monitoring primitives for virtual address spaces to support the schemes. From this point, the kernel space users can use DAMOS. The 4th patch exports the feature to the user space via the debugfs interface. The 5th patch implements schemes statistics feature for easier tuning of the schemes and runtime access pattern analysis, and the 6th patch adds selftests for these changes. Finally, the 7th patch documents this new feature. This patch (of 7): DAMON can be used for data access pattern aware memory management optimizations. For that, users should run DAMON, read the monitoring results, analyze it, plan a new memory management scheme, and apply the new scheme by themselves. It would not be too hard, but still require some level of effort. For complicated cases, this effort is inevitable. That said, in many cases, users would simply want to apply an actions to a memory region of a specific size having a specific access frequency for a specific time. For example, "page out a memory region larger than 100 MiB but having a low access frequency more than 10 minutes", or "Use THP for a memory region larger than 2 MiB having a high access frequency for more than 2 seconds". For such optimizations, users will need to first account the age of each region themselves. To reduce such efforts, this implements a simple age account of each region in DAMON. For each aggregation step, DAMON compares the access frequency with that from last aggregation and reset the age of the region if the change is significant. Else, the age is incremented. Also, in case of the merge of regions, the region size-weighted average of the ages is set as the age of merged new region.
