Message-ID: <20251117013407.0EC65C2BC9E@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)


The quilt patch titled
     Subject: Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/reclaim: document addr_unit parameter
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     docs-admin-guide-mm-damon-reclaim-document-addr_unit-parameter.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/reclaim: document addr_unit parameter
Date: Sun, 26 Oct 2025 11:22:10 -0700

Commit 7db551fcfb2a ("mm/damon/reclaim: support addr_unit for
DAMON_RECLAIM") introduced the 'addr_unit' parameter for DAMON_RECLAIM. 
But the usage document is not updated for that.  Update the document.

+addr_unit
+---------
+
+A scale factor for memory addresses and bytes.
+
+This parameter is for setting and getting the :ref:`address unit
+<damon_design_addr_unit>` parameter of the DAMON instance for DAMON_RECLAIM.
+
+``monitor_region_start`` and ``monitor_region_end`` should be provided in this
+unit.  For example, let's suppose ``addr_unit``, ``monitor_region_start`` and
+``monitor_region_end`` are set as ``1024``, ``0`` and ``10``, respectively.
+Then DAMON_RECLAIM will work for 10 KiB length of physical address range that
+starts from address zero (``[0 * 1024, 10 * 1024)`` in bytes).
+
+``bytes_reclaim_tried_regions`` and ``bytes_reclaimed_regions`` are also in
+this unit.  For example, let's suppose values of ``addr_unit``,
+``bytes_reclaim_tried_regions`` and ``bytes_reclaimed_regions`` are ``1024``,
+``42``, and ``32``, respectively.  Then it means DAMON_RECLAIM tried to reclaim
+42 KiB memory and successfully reclaimed 32 KiB memory in total.
+
+If unsure, use only the default value (``1``) and forget about this.
