[PATCH v5 0/4] mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Patches 1-2 from v4 which are a requirement for this series
were sent separately by SJ and are merged in mm-unstable.

hugepage_size DAMOS filter can be used to gather statistics to
check if memory regions of specific access tempratures are backed
by hugepages of a size in a specific range. This filter can help
to observe and prove the effectivenes of different schemes for
shrinking/collapsing hugepages.

v4 -> v5: (SJ)
- Drop patches 1-2 which were merged.
- change filter name from 'hugepage' -> 'hugepage_size'.
- change struct name from damon_folio_size to damon_size_range.

v3 -> v4:
- Add support for large folios of all sizes, and not just
  PMD mapped hugepages (David and SJ).
- only get folio while checking access/ applying DAMOS
  scheme if the head page is also part of that region.

v2 -> v3:
- expose hugepage via sysfs even if the kernel is
  built without hugepage support. DAMON will just
  just return 0. (SJ Park)

v1 -> v2:
- Wrap DAMOS_FILTER_TYPE_HUGEPAGE case with
  CONFIG_PGTABLE_HAS_HUGE_LEAVES (SJ Park)
