Subject: [PATCH REPOST 0/5] mm/damon/vaddr: support {prep,apply}_probes
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2026 07:04:02 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260909140408.104699-1-sj@kernel.org> (raw)
DAMON supports data attributes monitoring. However, only the physical
address space operation set (paddr) is supporting it. Add the support
to the virtual address space operation set (vaddr).
Patch 1 adds prep_probes support to vaddr. Patch 2 moves probe filter
handling code in paddr.c that can be reused by vaddr to ops-common.c.
Patch 3 adds minimum apply_probes support to vaddr. Patch 4 extends the
support for hugetlb. Patch 5 extends the support for pgidle_unset
filter.
Test
====
I confirmed it can capture ~48 mb working set of masim in vaddr mode,
like below.
First, start masim [1] to access ~48 mb memory at a time, in the
background.
$ ./masim/masim.py run \
--config_file ./masim/configs/stairs-50mb.cfg \
--repeat 10 --quiet &
Note that the config says the working set is 50mb. It is 50 million
bytes, so ~48 MiB.
Start traditional access monitoring of masim's virtual address space
using damo [2].
$ sudo ./damo/damo start $(pidof masim)
Confirm it can capture the ~48 MiB working set as the 4-th region on the
snapshot.
$ sudo ./damo/damo report access

Stop access monitoring and start probe-only mode access monitoring.
$ sudo ./damo/damo stop
$ sudo ./damo/damo start $(pidof masim) --probe_prep set_pgidle \
--probe_filter allow pgidle_unset --probe_weight 1
Confirm it can also capture the ~48 MiB working set as the 11-th region
