[RFC PATCH 1/5] mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: implement DAMOS tried total bytes file

From: SeongJae Park
Date: Fri Jul 28 2023 - 16:18:33 EST


The tried_regions directory can be used for retrieving the monitoring
results snapshot for regions of specific access pattern, by setting the
scheme's action as 'stat' and the access pattern as required. While the
interface provides every detail of the monitoring results, some use
cases including working set size monitoring requires only the total size
of the regions. For such cases, users should read all the information
and calculate the total size of the regions. However, it could incur
high overhead if the number of regions is high. Add a file for
retrieving only the information, namely 'total_bytes' file. It allows
users to get the total size by reading only the file.
