[PATCH 03/15] mm/damon/schemes: Skip already charged targets and regions

From: SeongJae Park
Date: Tue Oct 19 2021 - 11:07:59 EST


If DAMOS has stopped applying action in the middle of a group of memory
regions due to its size quota, it starts the work again from the
beginning of the address space in the next charge window. If there is a
huge memory region at the beginning of the address space and it fulfills
the scheme's target data access pattern always, the action will applied
to only the region.

This commit mitigates the case by skipping memory regions that charged
in current charge window at the beginning of next charge window.
