+Directory for specifying the destinations of given DAMON-based operation
+scheme's action. This directory is ignored if the action of the given scheme
+is not supporting multiple destinations. Only ``DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD}``
+actions are supporting multiple destinations.
+
+In the beginning, the directory has only one file, ``nr_dests``. Writing a
+number (``N``) to the file creates the number of child directories named ``0``
+to ``N-1``. Each directory represents each action destination.
+
+Each destination directory contains two files, namely ``id`` and ``weight``.
+Users can write and read the identifier of the destination to ``id`` file.
+For ``DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD}`` actions, the migrate destination node's node
+id should be written to ``id`` file. Users can write and read the weight of
+the destination among the given destinations to the ``weight`` file. The
+weight can be an arbitrary integer. When DAMOS apply the action to each entity
+of the memory region, it will select the destination of the action based on the
+relative weights of the destinations.
