Pull filesystem folio updates from Matthew Wilcox: "Primarily this series converts some of the address_space operations to take a folio instead of a page. Notably: - a_ops->is_partially_uptodate() takes a folio instead of a page and changes the type of the 'from' and 'count' arguments to make it obvious they're bytes. - a_ops->invalidatepage() becomes ->invalidate_folio() and has a similar type change. - a_ops->launder_page() becomes ->launder_folio() - a_ops->set_page_dirty() becomes ->dirty_folio() and adds the address_space as an argument.

This commit links the DAMON sysfs interface to DAMON so that users can control DAMON via the interface. In detail, this commit makes writing 'on' to 'state' file constructs DAMON contexts based on values that users have written to relevant sysfs files and start the context. It supports only virtual address spaces monitoring at the moment, though. The files hierarchy of DAMON sysfs interface after this commit is shown below. In the below figure, parents-children relations are represented with indentations, each directory is having ``/`` suffix, and files in each directory are separated by comma (","). /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin │ kdamonds/nr_kdamonds │ │ 0/state,pid │ │ │ contexts/nr_contexts │ │ │ │ 0/operations │ │ │ │ │ monitoring_attrs/ │ │ │ │ │ │ intervals/sample_us,aggr_us,update_us │ │ │ │ │ │ nr_regions/min,max │ │ │ │ │ targets/nr_targets │ │ │ │ │ │ 0/pid_target │ │ │ │ │ │ ... │ │ │ │ ... │ │ ... The usage is straightforward. Writing a number ('N') to each 'nr_*' file makes directories named '0' to 'N-1'. Users can construct DAMON contexts by writing proper values to the files in the straightforward manner and start each kdamond by writing 'on' to 'kdamonds/<N>/state'.

DAMON's debugfs-based user interface served very well, so far. However, it unnecessarily depends on debugfs, while DAMON is not aimed to be used for only debugging. Also, the interface receives multiple values via one file. For example, schemes file receives 18 values separated by white spaces. As a result, it is ineffient, hard to be used, and difficult to be extended. Especially, keeping backward compatibility of user space tools is getting only challenging. It would be better to implement another reliable and flexible interface and deprecate the debugfs interface in long term. To this end, this commit implements a stub of a part of the new user interface of DAMON using sysfs. Specifically, this commit implements the sysfs control parts for virtual address space monitoring. More specifically, the idea of the new interface is, using directory hierarchies and making one file for one value. The hierarchy that this commit is introducing is as below. In the below figure, parents-children relations are represented with indentations, each directory is having ``/`` suffix, and files in each directory are separated by comma (","). /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin │ kdamonds/nr_kdamonds │ │ 0/state,pid │ │ │ contexts/nr_contexts │ │ │ │ 0/operations │ │ │ │ │ monitoring_attrs/ │ │ │ │ │ │ intervals/sample_us,aggr_us,update_us │ │ │ │ │ │ nr_regions/min,max │ │ │ │ │ targets/nr_targets │ │ │ │ │ │ 0/pid_target │ │ │ │ │ │ ... │ │ │ │ ... │ │ ... Writing a number <N> to each 'nr' file makes directories of name <0> to <N-1> in the directory of the 'nr' file. That's all this commit does. Writing proper values to relevant files will construct the DAMON contexts, and writing a special keyword, 'on', to 'state' files for each kdamond will ask DAMON to start the constructed contexts. For a short example, using below commands for monitoring virtual address spaces of a given workload is imaginable: # cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/ # echo 1 > kdamonds/nr_kdamonds # echo 1 > kdamonds/0/contexts/nr_contexts # echo vaddr > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/operations # echo 1 > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/nr_targets # echo $(pidof <workload>) > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/0/pid_target # echo on > kdamonds/0/state Please note that this commit is implementing only the sysfs part stub as abovely mentioned. This commit doesn't implement the special keywords for 'state' files. Following commits will do that.

Patch series "Introduce DAMON sysfs interface", v3. Introduction ============ DAMON's debugfs-based user interface (DAMON_DBGFS) served very well, so far. However, it unnecessarily depends on debugfs, while DAMON is not aimed to be used for only debugging. Also, the interface receives multiple values via one file. For example, schemes file receives 18 values. As a result, it is inefficient, hard to be used, and difficult to be extended. Especially, keeping backward compatibility of user space tools is getting only challenging. It would be better to implement another reliable and flexible interface and deprecate DAMON_DBGFS in long term. For the reason, this patchset introduces a sysfs-based new user interface of DAMON. The idea of the new interface is, using directory hierarchies and having one dedicated file for each value. For a short example, users can do the virtual address monitoring via the interface as below: # cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/ # echo 1 > kdamonds/nr_kdamonds # echo 1 > kdamonds/0/contexts/nr_contexts # echo vaddr > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/operations # echo 1 > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/nr_targets # echo $(pidof <workload>) > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/0/pid_target # echo on > kdamonds/0/state A brief representation of the files hierarchy of DAMON sysfs interface is as below. Childs are represented with indentation, directories are having '/' suffix, and files in each directory are separated by comma. /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin │ kdamonds/nr_kdamonds │ │ 0/state,pid │ │ │ contexts/nr_contexts │ │ │ │ 0/operations │ │ │ │ │ monitoring_attrs/ │ │ │ │ │ │ intervals/sample_us,aggr_us,update_us │ │ │ │ │ │ nr_regions/min,max │ │ │ │ │ targets/nr_targets │ │ │ │ │ │ 0/pid_target │ │ │ │ │ │ │ regions/nr_regions │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ 0/start,end │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ ... │ │ │ │ │ │ ... │ │ │ │ │ schemes/nr_schemes │ │ │ │ │ │ 0/action │ │ │ │ │ │ │ access_pattern/ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ sz/min,max │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ nr_accesses/min,max │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ age/min,max │ │ │ │ │ │ │ quotas/ms,bytes,reset_interval_ms │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ weights/sz_permil,nr_accesses_permil,age_permil │ │ │ │ │ │ │ watermarks/metric,interval_us,high,mid,low │ │ │ │ │ │ │ stats/nr_tried,sz_tried,nr_applied,sz_applied,qt_exceeds │ │ │ │ │ │ ... │ │ │ │ ... │ │ ... Detailed usage of the files will be described in the final Documentation patch of this patchset. Main Difference Between DAMON_DBGFS and DAMON_SYSFS --------------------------------------------------- At the moment, DAMON_DBGFS and DAMON_SYSFS provides same features. One important difference between them is their exclusiveness. DAMON_DBGFS works in an exclusive manner, so that no DAMON worker thread (kdamond) in the system can run concurrently and interfere somehow. For the reason, DAMON_DBGFS asks users to construct all monitoring contexts and start them at once. It's not a big problem but makes the operation a little bit complex and unflexible. For more flexible usage, DAMON_SYSFS moves the responsibility of preventing any possible interference to the admins and work in a non-exclusive manner. That is, users can configure and start contexts one by one. Note that DAMON respects both exclusive groups and non-exclusive groups of contexts, in a manner similar to that of reader-writer locks. That is, if any exclusive monitoring contexts (e.g., contexts that started via DAMON_DBGFS) are running, DAMON_SYSFS does not start new contexts, and vice versa. Future Plan of DAMON_DBGFS Deprecation ====================================== Once this patchset is merged, DAMON_DBGFS development will be frozen. That is, we will maintain it to work as is now so that no users will be break. But, it will not be extended to provide any new feature of DAMON. The support will be continued only until next LTS release. After that, we will drop DAMON_DBGFS. User-space Tooling Compatibility -------------------------------- As DAMON_SYSFS provides all features of DAMON_DBGFS, all user space tooling can move to DAMON_SYSFS. As we will continue supporting DAMON_DBGFS until next LTS kernel release, user space tools would have enough time to move to DAMON_SYSFS. The official user space tool, damo[1], is already supporting both DAMON_SYSFS and DAMON_DBGFS. Both correctness tests[2] and performance tests[3] of DAMON using DAMON_SYSFS also passed. [1] https://github.com/awslabs/damo [2] https://github.com/awslabs/damon-tests/tree/master/corr [3] https://github.com/awslabs/damon-tests/tree/master/perf Sequence of Patches =================== First two patches (patches 1-2) make core changes for DAMON_SYSFS. The first one (patch 1) allows non-exclusive DAMON contexts so that DAMON_SYSFS can work in non-exclusive mode, while the second one (patch 2) adds size of DAMON enum types so that DAMON API users can safely iterate the enums. Third patch (patch 3) implements basic sysfs stub for virtual address spaces monitoring. Note that this implements only sysfs files and DAMON is not linked. Fourth patch (patch 4) links the DAMON_SYSFS to DAMON so that users can control DAMON using the sysfs files. Following six patches (patches 5-10) implements other DAMON features that DAMON_DBGFS supports one by one (physical address space monitoring, DAMON-based operation schemes, schemes quotas, schemes prioritization weights, schemes watermarks, and schemes stats). Following patch (patch 11) adds a simple selftest for DAMON_SYSFS, and the final one (patch 12) documents DAMON_SYSFS. This patch (of 13): To avoid interference between DAMON contexts monitoring overlapping memory regions, damon_start() works in an exclusive manner. That is, damon_start() does nothing bug fails if any context that started by another instance of the function is still running. This makes its usage a little bit restrictive. However, admins could aware each DAMON usage and address such interferences on their own in some cases. This commit hence implements non-exclusive mode of the function and allows the callers to select the mode. Note that the exclusive groups and non-exclusive groups of contexts will respect each other in a manner similar to that of reader-writer locks. Therefore, this commit will not cause any behavioral change to the exclusive groups.

Before DAMON is merged in the mainline, the concept of 'regions update interval' has generalized to be used as the time interval for update of any monitoring operations related data structure, but the document has not updated properly. This commit updates the document for better consistency. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220222170100.17068-4-sj@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

In DAMON's early development stage before it be merged in the mainline, it was first designed to work exclusively with Idle page tracking to avoid any interference between each other. Later, but still before be merged in the mainline, because Idle page tracking is fully under the control of sysadmins, we made the resolving of conflict as the responsibility of sysadmins. The document is not updated for the change, though. This commit updates the document for that. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220222170100.17068-3-sj@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

Patch series "Docs/damon: Update documents for better consistency". Some of DAMON document are not properly updated for latest version. This patchset updates such parts. This patch (of 3): DAMON code calls the low level monitoring primitives implementations the monitoring operations. The documentation would have no problem at still calling those primitives implementation because there is no real difference in the concepts, but making it more consistent with the code would make it better. This commit therefore convert sentences in the doc specifically pointing the implementations of the primitives to call it monitoring operations.

DAMON kunit tests for DAMON debugfs interface fails because it still assumes setting empty monitoring operations makes DAMON debugfs interface believe the target of the context don't have pid. This commit fixes the kunit test fails by explicitly setting the context's monitoring operations with the operations for the physical address space, which let debugfs knows the target will not have pid.

DAMON debugfs interface depends on monitoring operations for virtual address spaces because it knows if the target has pid or not by seeing if the context is configured to use one of the virtual address space monitoring operation functions. We can replace that check with 'enum damon_ops_id' now, to make it independent. This commit makes the change. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220215184603.1479-7-sj@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

This commit makes DAMON debugfs interface to select the registered monitoring operations for the physical address space or virtual address spaces depending on user requests instead of setting it on its own. Note that DAMON debugfs interface is still dependent to DAMON_VADDR with this change, because it is also using its symbol, 'damon_va_target_valid'.

This commit makes DAMON_RECLAIM to select the registered monitoring operations for the physical address space instead of setting it on its own. This allows DAMON_RECLAIM be independent of DAMON_PADDR, but leave the dependency as is, because it's the only one monitoring operations it use, and therefore it makes no sense to build DAMON_RECLAIM without DAMON_PADDR.

This commit makes the monitoring operations for the physical address space and virtual address spaces register themselves to DAMON in the subsys_initcall step. Later, in-kernel DAMON user code can use them via damon_select_ops() without have to unnecessarily depend on all possible monitoring operations implementations.

In-kernel DAMON user code like DAMON debugfs interface should set 'struct damon_operations' of its 'struct damon_ctx' on its own. Therefore, the client code should depend on all supporting monitoring operations implementations that it could use. For example, DAMON debugfs interface depends on both vaddr and paddr, while some of the users are not always interested in both. To minimize such unnecessary dependencies, this commit makes the monitoring operations can be registered by implementing code and then dynamically selected by the user code without build-time dependency.

Patch series "Allow DAMON user code independent of monitoring primitives". In-kernel DAMON user code is required to configure the monitoring context (struct damon_ctx) with proper monitoring primitives (struct damon_primitive). This makes the user code dependent to all supporting monitoring primitives. For example, DAMON debugfs interface depends on both DAMON_VADDR and DAMON_PADDR, though some users have interest in only one use case. As more monitoring primitives are introduced, the problem will be bigger. To minimize such unnecessary dependency, this patchset makes monitoring primitives can be registered by the implemnting code and later dynamically searched and selected by the user code. In addition to that, this patchset renames monitoring primitives to monitoring operations, which is more easy to intuitively understand what it means and how it would be structed. This patch (of 8): DAMON has a set of callback functions called monitoring primitives and let it can be configured with various implementations for easy extension for different address spaces and usages. However, the word 'primitive' is not so explicit. Meanwhile, many other structs resembles similar purpose calls themselves 'operations'. To make the code easier to be understood, this commit renames 'damon_primitives' to 'damon_operations' before it is too late to rename.

DAMON asks each monitoring target ('struct damon_target') to have one 'unsigned long' integer called 'id', which should be unique among the targets of same monitoring context. Meaning of it is, however, totally up to the monitoring primitives that registered to the monitoring context. For example, the virtual address spaces monitoring primitives treats the id as a 'struct pid' pointer. This makes the code flexible, but ugly, not well-documented, and type-unsafe[1]. Also, identification of each target can be done via its index. For the reason, this commit removes the concept and uses clear type definition. For now, only 'struct pid' pointer is used for the virtual address spaces monitoring. If DAMON is extended in future so that we need to put another identifier field in the struct, we will use a union for such primitives-dependent fields and document which primitives are using which type.

damon_set_targets() function is defined in the core for general use cases, but called from only dbgfs. Also, because the function is for general use cases, dbgfs does additional handling of pid type target id case. To make the situation simpler, this commit moves the function into dbgfs and makes it to do the pid type case handling on its own.

For example, it means 'struct pid *' for the virtual address spaces monitoring, while it means nothing but an integer to be displayed to debugfs interface users for the physical address space monitoring. It's flexible but makes code ugly and type-unsafe[1]. To be prepared for eventual removal of the concept, this commit removes a use case of the concept in 'init_regions' debugfs file handling. In detail, this commit replaces use of the id with the index of each target in the context's targets list.

Allow the use of a deferrable timer, which does not force CPU wake-ups when the system is idle. A consequence is that the sample interval becomes very unpredictable, to the point that it is not guaranteed that the KFENCE KUnit test still passes. Nevertheless, on power-constrained systems this may be preferable, so let's give the user the option should they accept the above trade-off.
