Note that this commit is implementing only the stub for the module load/unload, basic data structures, and simple manipulation functions of the structures to keep the size of commit small. The core mechanisms of DAMON will be implemented one by one by following commits. Brief Introduction ================== Memory management decisions can normally be more efficient if finer data access information is available. However, because finer information usually comes with higher overhead, most systems including Linux made a tradeoff: Forgive some wise decisions and use coarse information and/or light-weight heuristics. A number of experimental data access pattern awared memory management optimizations say the sacrifices are huge. However, none of those has successfully adopted to Linux kernel mainly due to the absence of a scalable and efficient data access monitoring mechanism. DAMON is a data access monitoring solution for the problem. It is 1) accurate enough for the DRAM level memory management, 2) light-weight enough to be applied online, and 3) keeps predefined upper-bound overhead regardless of the size of target workloads (thus scalable). DAMON is implemented as a standalone kernel module and provides several simple interfaces. Owing to that, though it has mainly designed for the kernel's memory management mechanisms, it can be also used for a wide range of user space programs and people. Frequently Asked Questions ========================== Q: Why not integrated with perf? A: From the perspective of perf like profilers, DAMON can be thought of as a data source in kernel, like tracepoints, pressure stall information (psi), or idle page tracking. Thus, it can be easily integrated with those. However, this patchset doesn't provide a fancy perf integration because current step of DAMON development is focused on its core logic only. That said, DAMON already provides two interfaces for user space programs, which based on debugfs and tracepoint, respectively. Using the tracepoint interface, you can use DAMON with perf. This patchset also provides the debugfs interface based user space tool for DAMON. It can be used to record, visualize, and analyze data access pattern of target processes in a convenient way. Q: Why a new module, instead of extending perf or other tools? A: First, DAMON aims to be used by other programs including the kernel. Therefore, having dependency to specific tools like perf is not desirable. Second, because it need to be lightweight as much as possible so that it can be used online, any unnecessary overhead such as kernel - user space context switching cost should be avoided. These are the two most biggest reasons why DAMON is implemented in the kernel space. The idle page tracking subsystem would be the kernel module that most seems similar to DAMON. However, it's own interface is not compatible with DAMON. Also, the internal implementation of it has no common part to be reused by DAMON. Q: Can 'perf mem' provide the data required for DAMON? A: On the systems supporting 'perf mem', yes. DAMON is using the PTE Accessed bits in low level. Other H/W or S/W features that can be used for the purpose could be used. However, as explained with above question, DAMON need to be implemented in the kernel space.
