2024-07-10Docs/mm/damon/design: remove 'Programmable Modules' section in favor of ↵SeongJae Park
'Modules' section 'Programmable Modules' section provides high level descriptions of the DAMON API-based kernel modules layer. But 'Modules' section, which is at the end of the document, provides every detail about the layer including that of 'Programmable Modules' section. Since the brief summary of the layers at the beginning of the document has a link to the 'Modules' section, browsing to the section is not that difficult. Remove 'Programmable Modules' section in favor of 'Modules' section and reducing duplicates.

2024-07-10Docs/mm/damon/design: move 'Configurable Operations Set' section into ↵SeongJae Park
'Operations Set Layer' section 'Configurable Operations Set' section is for providing a description of the pluggability of the operations set layer. Just after that, 'Operations Set Layer' section, which is dedicated for the entire things of the layer, follows. The layout is odd, and some descriptions are duplicated. Move 'Configurable Operations Set' section into 'Operations Set Layer' and re-write some of the detailed descriptions.

2024-07-10Docs/mm/damon/design: fix two typosSeongJae Park
Patch series "Docs/damon: minor fixups and improvements". Fixup typos, clarify regions merging operation design with recent change, add access pattern snapshot example use case, and improve readability of the design document and subsystem documents index by reorganizing/wordsmithing and adding links to other sections and/or documents for easy browsing. This patch (of 9): Fix two typos. The first one is just a simple typo: s/accurach/accuracy/ The second one is made by the author being out of their mind. 'Region Based Sampling' section of the doc is mistakenly calling the access frequency counter of region as 'nr_regions'. Fix it with the correct name, 'nr_accesses'.

2024-07-03Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: document DAMON community meetupsSeongJae Park
DAMON bi-weekly community meetup series has continued since 2022-08-15 for community members who prefer synchronous chat over asynchronous mails. Recently I got some feedbacks about the series from a few people. They told me the series is helpful for understanding of the project and particiapting to the development, but it could be further better in terms of the visibility. Based on that, I started sending meeting reminder for every occurrence. For people who don't subscribe the mailing list, however, adding an announcement on the official document could be helpful. Document the series on DAMON maintainer's profile for the purpose.

2024-07-03Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: introduce HacKerMaiLSeongJae Park
Patch series "Docs/mm/damon/maintaier-profile: document a mailing tool and community meetup series", v2. There is a mailing tool that developed and maintained by DAMON maintainer aiming to support DAMON community. Also there are DAMON community meetup series. Both are known to have rooms of improvements in terms of their visibility. Document those on the maintainer's profile document. This patch (of 2): Since DAMON was merged into mainline, I periodically received some questions around DAMON's mailing lists based workflow. The workflow is not different from the normal ones that well documented, but it is also true that it is not always easy and familiar for everyone. I personally overcame it by developing and using a simple tool, named HacKerMaiL (hkml)[1]. Based on my experience, I believe it is matured enough to be used for simple workflows like that of DAMON. Actually some DAMON contributors and Linux kernel developers other than myself told me they are using the tool. As DAMON maintainer, I also believe helping new DAMON community members onboarding to the worklow is one of the most important parts of my responsibilities. For the reason, the tool is announced[2] to support DAMON community. To further increasing the visibility of the fact, document the tool and the support plan on DAMON maintainer's profile.

2024-05-11Docs/mm/damon/maintainer-profile: allow posting patches based on damon/next treeSeongJae Park
The document mentions any patches for review should based on mm-unstable instead of damon/next. It should be the recommended process, but sometimes patches based on damon/next could be posted for some reasons. Actually, the DAMON-based tiered memory management patchset[1] was written on top of 'young page' DAMOS filter patchset, which was in damon/next tree as of the writing. Allow such case and just ask such things to be clearly specified.

2024-03-04Docs/mm/damon/design: remove the details for pageout as paddr doesn't use ↵Barry Song
MADV_PAGEOUT The doc needs a fix. As only in the case of virtual address, we are calling madvise() with MADV_PAGEOUT. But in the case of physical address, we are calling reclaim_pages() directly. MADV_PAGEOUT on virtual address is much more aggresive to reclaim memory compared to reclaim_pages() on paddr region. This patch removes the details so that the description can apply to both cases. And we don't need to couple with the implementation details.

2023-06-09Docs/mm/damon/faq: remove old questionsSeongJae Park
Patch series "Docs/mm/damon: Minor fixes and design doc update". Some of the DAMON documents are outdated, or having minor typos or grammar erros. Especially, the design doc has not updated for DAMOS, which is an important part of DAMON. Fix the minor issues and update documents. This patch (of 10): The first two questions of DAMON faqs have raised when DAMON patches were first submitted. More than one year has passed since DAMON patches get merged in the mainline, and that kind of questions are not asked nowadays. Remove the questions.
