Support the PSI-driven quota self-tuning from DAMON_RECLAIM by introducing
yet another parameter, 'quota_mem_pressure_us'. Users can set the desired
amount of memory pressure stall time per each quota reset interval using
the parameter. Then DAMON_RECLAIM monitor the memory pressure stall time,
specifically system-wide memory 'some' PSI value that increased during the
given time interval, and self-tune the quota using the DAMOS core logic.

DAMOS supports user-feedback driven quota auto-tuning, but only DAMON
sysfs interface is using it. Add support of the feature on DAMON_RECLAIM
by adding one more input parameter, namely 'quota_autotune_feedback', for

DAMOS quota auto-tuning asks users to assess the current tuned quota and
provide the feedback in a manual and repeated way. It allows users
generate the feedback from a source that the kernel cannot access, and
writing a script or a function for doing the manual and repeated feeding
is not a big deal. However, additional works are additional works, and it
could be more efficient if DAMOS could do the fetch itself, especially in
case of DAMON sysfs interface use case, since it can avoid the context
switches between the user-space and the kernel-space, though the overhead
would be only trivial in most cases. Also in many cases, feedbacks could
be made from kernel-accessible sources, such as PSI, CPU usage, etc. Make
the quota goal to support multiple types of metrics including such ones.

DAMON sysfs interface allows users to set two types of quotas, namely time
quota and size quota. DAMOS converts time quota to a size quota and use
smaller one among the resulting two size quotas. The resulting effective
size quota can be helpful for debugging and analysis, but not exposed to
the user. The recently added feedback-driven quota auto-tuning is making
it even more mysterious.

Patch series "mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself".
The Aim-oriented Feedback-driven DAMOS Aggressiveness Auto-tuning
patchset[1] which has merged since commit 9294a037c0 ("mm/damon/core:
implement goal-oriented feedback-driven quota auto-tuning") made the
mechanism and the policy separated. That is, users can set a part of
DAMOS control policies without a deep understanding of the mechanism but
just their demands such as SLA.
However, users are still required to do some additional work of manually
collecting their target metric and feeding it to DAMOS. In the case of
end-users who use DAMON sysfs interface, the context switches between
user-space and kernel-space could also make it inefficient. The overhead
is supposed to be only trivial in common cases, though. Meanwhile, in
simple use cases, the target metric could be common system metrics that
the kernel can efficiently self-retrieve, such as memory pressure stall
time (PSI).
Extend DAMOS quota auto-tuning to support multiple types of metrics
including the DAMOS self-retrievable ones, and add support for memory
pressure stall time metric. Different types of metrics can be supported
in future. The auto-tuning capability is currently supported for only
users of DAMOS kernel API and DAMON sysfs interface. Extend the support
to DAMON_RECLAIM.
Patches Sequence
================
First five patches are for helping debugging and fine-tuning existing
quota control features. The first one (patch 1) exposes the effective
quota that is made with given user inputs to DAMOS kernel API users and
kernel-doc documents. Following four patches implement (patches 1, 2 and
3) and document (patches 4 and 5) a new DAMON sysfs file that exposes the
value.
Following six patches cleanup and simplify the existing DAMOS quota
auto-tuning code by improving layout of comments and data structures
(patches 6 and 7), supporting common use cases, namely multiple goals
(patches 8, 9 and 10), and simplifying the interface (patch 11).
Then six patches for the main purpose of this patchset follow. The first
three changes extend the core logic for various target metrics (patch 12),
implement memory pressure stall time-based target metric support (patch
13), and update DAMON sysfs interface to support the new target metric
(patch 14). Then, documentation updates for the features on design (patch
15), ABI (patch 16), and usage (patch 17) follow.
Last three patches add auto-tuning support on DAMON_RECLAIM. The patches
implement DAMON_RECLAIM parameters for user-feedback driven quota
auto-tuning (patch 18), memory pressure stall time-driven quota
self-tuning (patch 19), and finally update the DAMON_RECLAIM usage
document for the new parameters (patch 20).

This patch (of 20):
DAMOS allow users to specify the quota as they want in multiple ways
including time quota, size quota, and feedback-based auto-tuning. DAMOS
makes one effective quota out of the inputs and use it at the end.
Knowing the current effective quota helps understanding DAMOS' internal
mechanism and fine-tuning quotas. DAMON kernel API users can get the
information from ->esz field of damos_quota struct, but the field is
marked as private purpose, and not kernel-doc documented. Make it public
and document.

DAMON sysfs interface need to access kdamond-touching data for some of
kdamond user commands. It uses ->after_aggregation() kdamond callback to
safely access the data in the case. It had to use the aggregation
interval callback because that was the only callback that users can access
complete monitoring results.
Since patch series "mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access
rate", which starts from commit 78fbfb155d ("mm/damon/core: define and
use a dedicated function for region access rate update"), DAMON provides
good-to-use quality moitoring results for every sampling interval. It
aims to help users who need to quickly retrieve the monitoring results.
When the aggregation interval is set too long and therefore waiting for
the aggregation interval can degrade user experience, or when the access
pattern is expected to be significantly changed[1] could be such cases.
However, because DAMON sysfs interface is still handling the commands per
aggregation interval, the end user cannot get the benefit. Update DAMON
sysfs interface to handle kdamond commands for every sampling interval if
applicable. Specifically, all kdamond data accessing commands except
'commit' command are applicable.

For online parameters change, DAMON_LRU_SORT creates new schemes based on
latest values of the parameters and replaces the old schemes with the new
one. When creating it, the internal status of the quotas of the old
schemes is not preserved. As a result, charging of the quota starts from
zero after the online tuning. The data that collected to estimate the
throughput of the scheme's action is also reset, and therefore the
estimation should start from the scratch again. Because the throughput
estimation is being used to convert the time quota to the effective size
quota, this could result in temporal time quota inaccuracy. It would be
recovered over time, though. In short, the quota accuracy could be
temporarily degraded after online parameters update.
Fix the problem by checking the case and copying the internal fields for

Make DAMON sysfs interface to read the user inputs for DAMOS quota goals
and pass those to DAMOS, so that the users can use the quota auto-tuning
feature. It uses the DAMON sysfs interface's user input commit mechanism,
which applies all user inputs for initial starting of DAMON and online
input updates, which can be done by writing 'on' and 'commit' to the
kdamond's 'state' file, respectively. In other words, the user should
periodically write appropriate value to 'current_value' files and 'commit'
command to the 'state' file. 'target_value' files could also be similarly
updated at any time.
Note that the interface is supporting multiple goals while the core logic
supports only one goal. DAMON sysfs interface passes only best feedback
among the given inputs, to avoid making DAMOS too aggressive.

Note that this commit is implementing only the basic file operations, and
not connecting the files with the DAMOS core logic. Hence writing
something to the files makes no real effect. The following commit will
connect the file operations and the core logic.

Patch series "mm/damon: let users feed and tame/auto-tune DAMOS".
Introduce Aim-oriented Feedback-driven DAMOS Aggressiveness Auto-tuning.
It makes DAMOS self-tuned with periodic simple user feedback.
Background: DAMOS Control Difficulty
====================================
DAMOS helps users easily implement access pattern aware system operations.
However, controlling DAMOS in the wild is not that easy.
The basic way for DAMOS control is specifying the target access pattern.
In this approach, the user is assumed to well understand the access
pattern and the characteristics of the system and the workloads. Though
there are useful tools for that, it takes time and effort depending on the
complexity and the dynamicity of the system and the workloads. After all,
the access pattern consists of three ranges, namely the size, the access
rate, and the age of the regions. It means users need to tune six
parameters, which is anyway not a simple task.
One of the worst cases would be DAMOS being too aggressive like a
berserker, and therefore consuming too much system resource and making
unwanted radical system operations. To let users avoid such cases, DAMOS
allows users to set the upper-limit of the schemes' aggressiveness, namely
DAMOS quota. DAMOS further provides its best-effort under the limit by
prioritizing regions based on the access pattern of the regions. For
example, users can ask DAMOS to page out up to 100 MiB of memory regions
per second. Then DAMOS pages out regions that are not accessed for a
longer time (colder) first under the limit. This allows users to set the
target access pattern a bit naive with wider ranges, and focus on tuning
only one parameter, the quota. In other words, the number of parameters
to tune can be reduced from six to one.
Still, however, the optimum value for the quota depends on the system and
the workloads' characteristics, so not that simple. The number of
parameters to tune can also increase again if the user needs to run
multiple schemes.
Aim-oriented Feedback-driven DAMOS Aggressiveness Auto Tuning
=============================================================
Users would use DAMOS since they want to achieve something with it. They
will likely have measurable metrics representing the achievement and the
target number of the metric like SLO, and continuously measure that
anyway. While the additional cost of getting the information is nearly
zero, it could be useful for DAMOS to understand how appropriate its
current aggressiveness is set, and adjust it on its own to make the metric
value more close to the target.
Based on this idea, we introduce a new way of tuning DAMOS with nearly
zero additional effort, namely Aim-oriented Feedback-driven DAMOS
Aggressiveness Auto Tuning. It asks users to provide feedback
representing how well DAMOS is doing relative to the users' aim. Then
DAMOS adjusts its aggressiveness, specifically the quota that provides
the best effort result under the limit, based on the current level of
the aggressiveness and the users' feedback.
Implementation
==============
The implementation asks users to represent the feedback with score
numbers. The scores could be anything including user-space specific
metrics including latency and throughput of special user-space workloads,
and system metrics including free memory ratio, memory pressure stall time
(PSI), and active to inactive LRU lists size ratio. The feedback scores
and the aggressiveness of the given DAMOS scheme are assumed to be
positively proportional, though. Selecting metrics of the assumption is
the users' responsibility.
The core logic uses the below simple feedback loop algorithm to calculate
the next aggressiveness level of the scheme from the current
aggressiveness level and the current feedback (target_score and
current_score). It calculates the compensation for next aggressiveness as
a proportion of current aggressiveness and distance to the target score.
As a result, it arrives at the near-goal state in a short time using big
steps when it's far from the goal, but avoids making unnecessarily radical
changes that could turn out to be a bad decision using small steps when
its near to the goal.
f(n) = max(1, f(n - 1) * ((target_score - current_score) / target_score + 1))
Note that the compensation value becomes negative when it's over
achieving the goal. That's why the feedback metric and the
aggressiveness of the scheme should be positively proportional. The
distance-adaptive speed manipulation is simply applied.
Example Use Cases
=================
If users want to reduce the memory footprint of the system as much as
possible as long as the time spent for handling the resulting memory
pressure is within a threshold, they could use DAMOS scheme that reclaims
cold memory regions aiming for a little level of memory pressure stall
time.
If users want the active/inactive LRU lists well balanced to reduce the
performance impact due to possible future memory pressure, they could use
two schemes. The first one would be set to locate hot pages in the active
LRU list, aiming for a specific active-to-inactive LRU list size ratio,
say, 70%. The second one would be to locate cold pages in the inactive
LRU list, aiming for a specific inactive-to-active LRU list size ratio,
say, 30%. Then, DAMOS will balance the two schemes based on the goal and
feedback.
This aim-oriented auto tuning could also be useful for general
balancing-required access aware system operations such as system memory
auto scaling[3] and tiered memory management[4]. These two example usages
are not what current DAMOS implementation is already supporting, but
require additional DAMOS action developments, though.
Evaluation: subtle memory pressure aiming proactive reclamation
===============================================================
To show if the implementation works as expected, we prepare four different
system configurations on AWS i3.metal instances. The first setup
(original) runs the workload without any DAMOS scheme. The second setup
(not-tuned) runs the workload with a virtual address space-based proactive
reclamation scheme that pages out memory regions that are not accessed for
five seconds or more. The third setup (offline-tuned) runs the same
proactive reclamation DAMOS scheme, but after making it tuned for each
workload offline, using our previous user-space driven automatic tuning
approach, namely DAMOOS[1]. The fourth and final setup (AFDAA) runs the
scheme that is the same as that of 'not-tuned' setup, but aims to keep
0.5% of 'some' memory pressure stall time (PSI) for the last 10 seconds
using the aiming-oriented auto tuning.
For each setup, we run realistic workloads from PARSEC3 and SPLASH-2X
benchmark suites. For each run, we measure RSS and runtime of the
workload, and 'some' memory pressure stall time (PSI) of the system. We
repeat the runs five times and use averaged measurements.
For simple comparison of the results, we normalize the measurements to
those of 'original'. In the case of the PSI, though, the measurement for
'original' was zero, so we normalize the value to that of 'not-tuned'
scheme's result. The normalized results are shown below.
Not-tuned Offline-tuned AFDAA
RSS 0.622688178226118 0.787950678944904 0.740093483278979
runtime 1.11767826657912 1.0564674983585 1.0910833880499
PSI 1 0.727521443794069 0.308498846350299
The 'not-tuned' scheme achieves about 38.7% memory saving but incur about
11.7% runtime slowdown. The 'offline-tuned' scheme achieves about 22.2%
memory saving with about 5.5% runtime slowdown. It also achieves about
28.2% memory pressure stall time saving. AFDAA achieves about 26% memory
saving with about 9.1% runtime slowdown. It also achieves about 69.1%
memory pressure stall time saving. We repeat this test multiple times,
and get consistent results. AFDAA is now integrated in our daily DAMON
performance test setup.
Apparently the aggressiveness of 'AFDAA' setup is somewhere between those
of 'not-tuned' and 'offline-tuned' setup, since its memory saving and
runtime overhead are between those of the other two setups. Actually we
set the memory pressure stall time goal aiming for this middle
aggressiveness. The difference in the two metrics are not significant,
though. However, it shows significant saving of the memory pressure stall
time, which was the goal of the auto-tuning, over the two variants.
Hence, we conclude the automatic tuning is working as expected.
Please note that the AFDAA setup is only for the evaluation, and
therefore intentionally set a bit aggressive. It might not be
appropriate for production environments.
The test code is also available[2], so you could reproduce it on your
system and workloads.
Patches Sequence
================
The first four patches implement the core logic and user interfaces for
the auto tuning. The first patch implements the core logic for the auto
tuning, and the API for DAMOS users in the kernel space. The second
patch implements basic file operations of DAMON sysfs directories and
files that will be used for setting the goals and providing the
feedback. The third patch connects the quota goals files inputs to the
DAMOS core logic. Finally the fourth patch implements a dedicated DAMOS
sysfs command for efficiently committing the quota goals feedback.
Two patches for simple tests of the logic and interfaces follow. The
fifth patch implements the core logic unit test. The sixth patch
implements a selftest for the DAMON Sysfs interface for the goals.
Finally, three patches for documentation follows. The seventh patch
documents the design of the feature. The eighth patch updates the API
doc for the new sysfs files. The final eighth patch updates the usage
document for the features.

This patch (of 9)
Users can effectively control the upper-limit aggressiveness of DAMOS
schemes using the quota feature. The quota provides best result under the
limit by prioritizing regions based on the access pattern. That said,
finding the best value, which could depend on dynamic characteristics of
the system and the workloads, is still challenging.
Implement a simple feedback-driven tuning mechanism and use it for
automatic tuning of DAMOS quota. The implementation allows users to
provide the feedback by setting a feedback score returning callback
function. Then DAMOS periodically calls the function back and adjusts the
quota based on the return value of the callback and current quota value.
Note that the absolute-value based time/size quotas still work as the
maximum hard limits of the scheme's aggressiveness. The feedback-driven
auto-tuned quota is applied only if it is not exceeding the manually set
maximum limits. Same for the scheme-target access pattern and filters
like other features.

Regions split function ('damon_split_region_at()') is called at the
beginning of an aggregation interval, and when DAMOS applying the actions
and charging quota. Because 'nr_accesses' fields of all regions are reset
at the beginning of each aggregation interval, and DAMOS was applying the
action at the end of each aggregation interval, there was no need to copy
the 'nr_accesses' field to the split-out region.
However, commit 42f994b714 ("mm/damon/core: implement scheme-specific
apply interval") made DAMOS applies action on its own timing interval.
Hence, 'nr_accesses' should also copied to split-out regions, but the
commit didn't. Fix it by copying it.

When user input is committed online, DAMON sysfs interface is ignoring the
user input for the monitoring target regions. Such request is valid and
useful for fixed monitoring target regions-based monitoring ops like
'paddr' or 'fvaddr'.
Update the region boundaries as user specified, too. Note that the
monitoring results of the regions that overlap between the latest
monitoring target regions and the new target regions are preserved.
Treat empty monitoring target regions user request as a request to just
make no change to the monitoring target regions. Otherwise, users should
set the monitoring target regions same to current one for every online
input commit, and it could be challenging for dynamic monitoring target
regions update DAMON ops like 'vaddr'. If the user really need to remove
all monitoring target regions, they can simply remove the target and then
create the target again with empty target regions.

more than expected.
Fix it by removing all targets of the context and fill up again using the

operations, but this is not a hot code path. Also, note that damon_target
is stateless, and hence no data is lost.

DAMON_SYSFS assumes all schemes will be applied for at least one DAMON
monitoring results snapshot within one aggregation interval, or makes no
sense to wait for it while DAMON is deactivated by the watermarks. That
for deactivated status still makes sense, but the aggregation interval
based assumption is invalid now because each scheme can has its own apply
interval. For schemes having larger than the aggregation or watermarks
check interval, DAMOS tried regions update request can be finished without
the update. Avoid the case by explicitly checking the status of the
schemes tried regions update and watermarks based DAMON deactivation.
