Each filter directory contains six files, namely ``type``, ``matcing``,
``memcg_path``, ``addr_start``, ``addr_end``, and ``target_idx``. To ``type``
file, you can write one of four special keywords: ``anon`` for anonymous pages,
``memcg`` for specific memory cgroup, ``addr`` for specific address range (an
open-ended interval), or ``target`` for specific DAMON monitoring target
filtering. In case of the memory cgroup filtering, you can specify the memory
cgroup of the interest by writing the path of the memory cgroup from the
cgroups mount point to ``memcg_path`` file. In case of the address range
filtering, you can specify the start and end address of the range to
``addr_start`` and ``addr_end`` files, respectively. For the DAMON monitoring
target filtering, you can specify the index of the target between the list of
the DAMON context's monitoring targets list to ``target_idx`` file. You can
write ``Y`` or ``N`` to ``matching`` file to filter out pages that does or does
not match to the type, respectively. Then, the scheme's action will not be
applied to the pages that specified to be filtered out.

For example, below restricts a DAMOS action to be applied to only non-anonymous
pages of all memory cgroups except ``/having_care_already``.::
