Subject: Re: [PATCH v3]  mm/damon/lru_sort: adjust local variable to dynamic allocation

Hi Peng,


For DAMON patches, please Cc linux-mm@.  I'd also suggest Cc-ing linux-kernel@
if you don't mind.

Please put the version history under '---' line below, as suggested[1] by the
document.  Also, adding lore links to the previous versions would be helpful.

We don't know if the caller has something to do further with it after this
function returns.  Let's keep it do be done by the caller.

Let's do sizeof(*damon_lru_sort_quota).  Also, please keep 80 columns line size
rule[2] for DAMON code.
