Only minimum file operations for refresh_ms file is implemented. Further
implement its designed behavior, the periodic essential files content
update, using repeat mode damon_call().
If non-zero value is written to the file, update DAMON sysfs files for
auto-tuned monitoring intervals, DAMOS stats, and auto-tuned DAMOS quota
values, which are essential to be monitored in most DAMON use cases. The
user-written non-zero value becomes the time delay between the update. If
zero is written to the file, the periodic refresh is disabled.

Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: support periodic and automated stats
update".
DAMON sysfs interface provides files for reading DAMON internal status
including auto-tuned monitoring intervals, DAMOS stats, DAMOS action
applied regions, and auto-tuned DAMOS effective quota. Among those,
auto-tuned monitoring intervals, DAMOS stats and auto-tuned DAMOS
effective quota are essential for common DAMON/S use cases.
The content of the files are not automatically updated, though. Users
should manually request updates of the contents by writing a special
command to 'state' file of each kdamond directory. This interface is good
for minimizing overhead, but causes the below problems.
First, the usage is cumbersome. This is arguably not a big problem, since
the user-space tool (damo) can do this instead of the user.
Second, it can be too slow. The update request is not directly handled by
the sysfs interface but kdamond thread. And kdamond threads wake up only
once per the sampling interval. Hence if sampling interval is not short,
each update request could take too long time. The recommended sampling
interval setup is asking DAMON to automatically tune it, within a range
between 5 milliseconds and 10 seconds. On production systems it is not
very rare to have a few seconds sampling interval as a result of the
auto-tuning, so this can disturb observing DAMON internal status.
Finally, parallel update requests can conflict with each other. When
parallel update requests are received, DAMON sysfs interface simply
returns -EBUSY to one of the requests. DAMON user-space tool is hence
implementing its own backoff mechanism, but this can make the operation
even slower.
Introduce a new sysfs file, namely refresh_ms, for asking DAMON sysfs
interface to repeat the update of the above mentioned essential contents
with a user-specified time delay. If non-zero value is written to the
file, DAMON sysfs interface does the updates for essential DAMON internal
status including auto-tuned monitoring intervals, DAMOS stats, and
auto-tuned DAMOS quotas using the user-written value as the time delay.
In other words, it is similar to periodically writing
'update_schemes_stats', 'update_schemes_effective_quotas', and
'update_tuned_intervals' keywords to the 'state' file. If zero is written
to the file, the automatic refresh is disabled.
This patch (of 4):
Implement a new DAMON sysfs file named 'refresh_ms' under each kdamond
directory. The file will be used as a control knob of automatic refresh
of a few DAMON internal status files. This commit implements only minimum
file operations, though. The automatic refresh feature will be
implemented by the following commit.

The function was introduced for putting pids and deallocating unnecessary
targets. Hence it is called before damon_destroy_ctx(). Now vaddr puts
pid for each target destruction (cleanup_target()). damon_destroy_ctx()
deallocates the targets anyway. So damon_sysfs_destroy_targets() has no
reason to exist. Remove it.

damon_sysfs_handle_cmd()
damon_sysfs_handle_cmd() handles user requests that it can directly handle
on its own. For requests that need to be handled from damon_callback
hooks, it uses DAMON sysfs interface's own synchronous damon_callback
hooks management mechanism, namely damon_sysfs_cmd_request. Now all user
requests are handled without damon_callback hooks, so
damon_sysfs_cmd_request client code in damon_sysfs_andle_cmd() does
nothing in real. Remove the unnecessary code.

DAMON sysfs interface is using damon_callback->after_aggregation hook with
its self-implemented synchronization mechanism for the hook. It is
inefficient, complicated, and take up to one aggregation interval to
complete, which can be long on some configs.
Use damon_call() instead. It provides a synchronization mechanism that
built inside DAMON's core layer, so more efficient than DAMON sysfs
interface's own one. Also it isolates the implementation inside the core
layer, and hence it makes the code easier to maintain. Finally, it takes
up to one sampling interval, which is much shorter than the aggregation
interval in common setups.

Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via damon_call()".
Due to the lack of ways to synchronously access DAMON internal data, DAMON
sysfs interface is using damon_callback hooks with its own synchronization
mechanism. The mechanism is built on top of damon_callback hooks in an
ineifficient and complicated way.
Patch series "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with
new core functions", which starts with commit e035320fd38e
("mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: remove unnecessary schemes existence check in
damon_sysfs_schemes_clear_regions()") introduced two new DAMON kernel API
functions that providing the synchronous access, replaced most
damon_callback hooks usage in DAMON sysfs interface, and cleaned up
unnecessary code.
Continue the replacement and cleanup works. Update the last DAMON sysfs'
usage of its own synchronization mechanism, namely online DAMON parameters
commit, to use damon_call() instead of the damon_callback hooks and the
hard-to-maintain core-external synchronization mechanism. Then remove the
no more be used code due to the change, and more unused code that just not
yet cleaned up.
The first four patches (patches 1-4) of this series makes DAMON sysfs
interface's online parameters commit to use damon_call(). Then, following
three patches (patches 5-7) remove the DAMON sysfs interface's own
synchronization mechanism and its usages, which is no more be used by
anyone due to the first four patches. Finally, six patches (8-13) do more
cleanup of outdated comment and unused code.
This patch (of 13):
Online DAMON parameters commit via DAMON sysfs interface can make kdamond
stop. This behavior was made because it can make the implementation
simpler. The implementation tries committing the parameter without
validation. If it finds something wrong in the middle of the parameters
update, it returns error without reverting the partially committed
parameters back. It is safe though, since it immediately breaks kdamond
main loop in the case of the error return.
Users can make the wrong parameters by mistake, though. Stopping kdamond
in the case is not very useful behavior. Also this makes it difficult to
utilize damon_call() instead of damon_callback hook for online parameters
update, since damon_call() cannot immediately break kdamond main loop in
the middle.
Validate the input parameters and return error when it fails before
starting parameters updates. In case of mistakenly wrong parameters,
kdamond can continue running with the old and valid parameters.

damon_sysfs_schemes_clear_regions()
Patch series "mm/damon: replace most damon_callback usages in sysfs with
new core functions".
DAMON provides damon_callback API that notifies monitoring events and
allows safe access to damon_ctx internal data. The usage is simple.
Users register and deregister callback functions for different monitoring
events in damon_ctx. Then the DAMON worker thread (kdamond) of the
damon_ctx calls back the registered functions on the events.
It is designed in such simple way because it was sufficient for usages of
DAMON at the early days. We also wanted to make it flexible so that API
user code can implement any required additional features on top of
damon_callback on their demands.
As expected, more sophisticated usages have invented. Online updates of
DAMON parameters and DAMOS auto-tuning inputs, and online retrieval of
DAMOS statistics and tried regions information are such usages. Because
damon_callback doesn't provide any explicit synchronization mechanism, the
user ABIs for exposing such functionalities are implemented in
asynchronous ways (DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT}), or synchronous ways
(DAMON_SYSFS) with additional synchronization mechanisms that built inside
the ABI implementation, on top of damon_callback.
So damon_callback is working as expected. However, the additional
mechanisms built inside ABI on top of damon_callback is becoming somewhat
too big and not easy to maintain. The additional mechanisms can be
smaller and easier to maintain when implemented inside the core logic
layer.
Introduce two new DAMON core API, namely 'damon_call()' and
'damos_walk()'. The two functions support synchronous access to
- damon_ctx internal data including DAMON parameters and monitoring
results, and
- DAMOS-specific data such as regions that each DAMOS action is applied,
respectively.
And replace most of damon_callback usages in DAMON sysfs interface with
the new core API functions. damon_callback usage for online DAMON
parameters tuning is not replaced in this series, since it has specific
callback timing assumptions that require more works.
Patch sequence
==============
First two patches are fixups for simplifying the following changes. Those
remove a unnecessary condition check and a synchronization, respectively.
Third patch implements one of the new DAMON core APIs, namely
damon_call(). Three patches replacing damon_callback usages in DAMON
sysfs interface using damon_call() follow.
Then, seventh and eighth patches introduces the other new DAMON API,
damos_walk(), and document it on the design doc. Ninth patch replaces two
damon_callback usages in DAMON sysfs interface using damos_walk().
The tenth patch finally cleans up code that no more being used.
This patch (of 10):
damon_sysfs_schemes_clear_regions() skips removing the scheme tried region
directories only if the matching scheme is still ongoing. It is
unnecessary check, since what users want is just removing the entire
region directories. Remove the unnecessary check.

possible
DAMON sysfs interface need to access kdamond-touching data for some of
kdamond user commands. It uses ->after_aggregation() kdamond callback to
safely access the data in the case. It had to use the aggregation
interval callback because that was the only callback that users can access
complete monitoring results.
Since patch series "mm/damon: provide pseudo-moving sum based access
rate", which starts from commit 78fbfb155d20 ("mm/damon/core: define and
use a dedicated function for region access rate update"), DAMON provides
good-to-use quality moitoring results for every sampling interval. It
aims to help users who need to quickly retrieve the monitoring results.
When the aggregation interval is set too long and therefore waiting for
the aggregation interval can degrade user experience, or when the access
pattern is expected to be significantly changed[1] could be such cases.
However, because DAMON sysfs interface is still handling the commands per
aggregation interval, the end user cannot get the benefit. Update DAMON
sysfs interface to handle kdamond commands for every sampling interval if

To update DAMOS quota goals, users need to enter 'commit' command to the
'state' file of the kdamond, which applies not only the goals but entire
inputs. It is inefficient. Implement yet another 'state' file input
command for reading and committing only the scheme quota goals, namely
'commit_schemes_quota_goals'.

Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: fix unhandled return values".
Some of DAMON sysfs interface code is not handling return values from some
functions. As a result, confusing user input handling or NULL-dereference
is possible. Check those properly.
This patch (of 3):
damon_sysfs_update_target() returns error code for failures, but its
caller, damon_sysfs_set_targets() is ignoring that. The update function
seems making no critical change in case of such failures, but the behavior
will look like DAMON sysfs is silently ignoring or only partially
accepting the user input. Fix it.

When user input is committed online, DAMON sysfs interface is ignoring the
user input for the monitoring target regions. Such request is valid and
useful for fixed monitoring target regions-based monitoring ops like
'paddr' or 'fvaddr'.
Update the region boundaries as user specified, too. Note that the
monitoring results of the regions that overlap between the latest
monitoring target regions and the new target regions are preserved.
Treat empty monitoring target regions user request as a request to just
make no change to the monitoring target regions. Otherwise, users should
set the monitoring target regions same to current one for every online
input commit, and it could be challenging for dynamic monitoring target
regions update DAMON ops like 'vaddr'. If the user really need to remove
all monitoring target regions, they can simply remove the target and then
create the target again with empty target regions.

damon_sysfs_set_targets(), which updates the targets of the context for
online commitment, do not remove targets that removed from the
corresponding sysfs files. As a result, more than intended targets of the
context can exist and hence consume memory and monitoring CPU resource
more than expected.
Fix it by removing all targets of the context and fill up again using the
user input. This could cause unnecessary memory dealloc and realloc
operations, but this is not a hot code path. Also, note that damon_target
is stateless, and hence no data is lost.

DAMON_SYSFS assumes all schemes will be applied for at least one DAMON
monitoring results snapshot within one aggregation interval, or makes no
sense to wait for it while DAMON is deactivated by the watermarks. That
for deactivated status still makes sense, but the aggregation interval
based assumption is invalid now because each scheme can has its own apply
interval. For schemes having larger than the aggregation or watermarks
check interval, DAMOS tried regions update request can be finished without
the update. Avoid the case by explicitly checking the status of the
schemes tried regions update and watermarks based DAMON deactivation.

DAMON_SYSFS can receive DAMOS tried regions update request while kdamond
is already out of the main loop and before_terminate callback
(damon_sysfs_before_terminate() in this case) is not yet called. And
damon_sysfs_handle_cmd() can further be finished before the callback is
invoked. Then, damon_sysfs_before_terminate() unlocks damon_sysfs_lock,
which is not locked by anyone. This happens because the callback function
assumes damon_sysfs_cmd_request_callback() should be called before it.
Check if the assumption was true before doing the unlock, to avoid this
problem.

Using tried_regions/total_bytes file, users can efficiently retrieve the
total size of memory regions having specific access pattern. However,
DAMON sysfs interface in kernel still populates all the infomration on the
tried_regions subdirectories. That means the kernel part overhead for the
construction of tried regions directories still exists. To remove the
overhead, implement yet another command input for 'state' DAMON sysfs
file. Writing the input to the file makes DAMON sysfs interface to update
only the total_bytes file.

Implement the code for filling the data of 'tried_regions' DAMON sysfs
directory. With this commit, DAMON sysfs interface users can write a
special keyword, 'update_schemes_tried_regions' to the corresponding
'state' file of the kdamond. Then, DAMON sysfs interface will collect the
tried regions information using the 'before_damos_apply()' callback for
one aggregation interval and populate scheme region directories with the
values.

DAMON sysfs interface is implemented in a single file, sysfs.c, which has
about 2,800 lines of code. As the interface is hierarchical and some of
the code can be reused by different hierarchies, it would make more sense
to split out the implementation into common parts and different parts in
multiple files. As the beginning of the work, create files for common
code and move the global mutex for directories modifications protection
into the new file.
