Patch series "mm/damon: add a tracepoint for damos apply target regions", v2. DAMON provides damon_aggregated tracepoint to let users record full monitoring results. Sometimes, users need to record monitoring results of specific pattern. DAMOS tried regions directory of DAMON sysfs interface allows it, but the interface is mainly designed for snapshots and therefore would be inefficient for such recording. Implement yet another tracepoint for efficient support of the usecase. This patch (of 2): DAMON provides damon_aggregated tracepoint, which exposes details of each region and its access monitoring results. It is useful for getting whole monitoring results, e.g., for recording purposes. For investigations of DAMOS, DAMON Sysfs interface provides DAMOS statistics and tried_regions directory. But, those provides only statistics and snapshots. If the scheme is frequently applied and if the user needs to know every detail of DAMOS behavior, the snapshot-based interface could be insufficient and expensive. As a last resort, userspace users need to record the all monitoring results via damon_aggregated tracepoint and simulate how DAMOS would worked. It is unnecessarily complicated. DAMON kernel API users, meanwhile, can do that easily via before_damos_apply() callback field of 'struct damon_callback', though. Add a tracepoint that will be called just after before_damos_apply() callback for more convenient investigations of DAMOS. The tracepoint exposes all details about each regions, similar to damon_aggregated tracepoint. Please note that DAMOS is currently not only for memory management but also for query-like efficient monitoring results retrievals (when 'stat' action is used). Until now, only statistics or snapshots were supported. Addition of this tracepoint allows efficient full recording of DAMOS-based filtered monitoring results.
