Message-Id: <20220223152051.22936-2-sj@kernel.org> Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2022 15:20:40 +0000 From: SeongJae Park <sj@...nel.org> To: akpm@...ux-foundation.org Cc: corbet@....net, skhan@...uxfoundation.org, rientjes@...gle.com, xhao@...ux.alibaba.com, linux-damon@...zon.com, linux-mm@...ck.org, linux-doc@...r.kernel.org, linux-kselftest@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, SeongJae Park <sj@...nel.org> Subject: [PATCH 01/12] mm/damon/core: Allow non-exclusive DAMON start/stop To avoid interference between DAMON contexts monitoring overlapping memory regions, damon_start() works in an exclusive manner. That is, damon_start() does nothing bug fails if any context that started by another instance of the function is still running. This makes its usage a little bit restrictive. However, admins could aware each DAMON usage and address such interferences on their own in some cases. This commit hence implements non-exclusive mode of the function and allows the callers to select the mode. Note that the exclusive groups and non-exclusive groups of contexts will respect each other in a manner similar to that of reader-writer locks. Therefore, this commit will not cause any behavioral change to the exclusive groups.
