  67 * @init:                       Initialize primitive-internal data structures.
  68 * @update:                     Update primitive-internal data structures.
  69 * @prepare_access_checks:      Prepare next access check of target regions.
  70 * @check_accesses:             Check the accesses to target regions.
  71 * @reset_aggregated:           Reset aggregated accesses monitoring results.
  72 * @target_valid:               Determine if the target is valid.
  73 * @cleanup:                    Clean up the context.
  74 *
  75 * DAMON can be extended for various address spaces and usages.  For this,
  76 * users should register the low level primitives for their target address
  77 * space and usecase via the &damon_ctx.primitive.  Then, the monitoring thread
  78 * (&damon_ctx.kdamond) calls @init and @prepare_access_checks before starting
  79 * the monitoring, @update after each &damon_ctx.primitive_update_interval, and
  80 * @check_accesses, @target_valid and @prepare_access_checks after each
  81 * &damon_ctx.sample_interval.  Finally, @reset_aggregated is called after each
  82 * &damon_ctx.aggr_interval.
  83 *
  84 * @init should initialize primitive-internal data structures.  For example,
  85 * this could be used to construct proper monitoring target regions and link
  86 * those to @damon_ctx.adaptive_targets.
  87 * @update should update the primitive-internal data structures.  For example,
  88 * this could be used to update monitoring target regions for current status.
  89 * @prepare_access_checks should manipulate the monitoring regions to be
  90 * prepared for the next access check.
  91 * @check_accesses should check the accesses to each region that made after the
  92 * last preparation and update the number of observed accesses of each region.
  93 * It should also return max number of observed accesses that made as a result
  94 * of its update.  The value will be used for regions adjustment threshold.
  95 * @reset_aggregated should reset the access monitoring results that aggregated
  96 * by @check_accesses.
  97 * @target_valid should check whether the target is still valid for the
  98 * monitoring.
  99 * @cleanup is called from @kdamond just before its termination.

 142/**
 143 * struct damon_ctx - Represents a context for each monitoring.  This is the
 144 * main interface that allows users to set the attributes and get the results
 145 * of the monitoring.
 146 *
 147 * @sample_interval:            The time between access samplings.
 148 * @aggr_interval:              The time between monitor results aggregations.
 149 * @primitive_update_interval:  The time between monitoring primitive updates.
 150 *
 151 * For each @sample_interval, DAMON checks whether each region is accessed or
 152 * not.  It aggregates and keeps the access information (number of accesses to
 153 * each region) for @aggr_interval time.  DAMON also checks whether the target
 154 * memory regions need update (e.g., by ``mmap()`` calls from the application,
 155 * in case of virtual memory monitoring) and applies the changes for each
 156 * @primitive_update_interval.  All time intervals are in micro-seconds.
 157 * Please refer to &struct damon_primitive and &struct damon_callback for more
 158 * detail.
 159 *
 160 * @kdamond:            Kernel thread who does the monitoring.
 161 * @kdamond_stop:       Notifies whether kdamond should stop.
 162 * @kdamond_lock:       Mutex for the synchronizations with @kdamond.
 163 *
 164 * For each monitoring context, one kernel thread for the monitoring is
 165 * created.  The pointer to the thread is stored in @kdamond.
 166 *
 167 * Once started, the monitoring thread runs until explicitly required to be
 168 * terminated or every monitoring target is invalid.  The validity of the
 169 * targets is checked via the &damon_primitive.target_valid of @primitive.  The
 170 * termination can also be explicitly requested by writing non-zero to
 171 * @kdamond_stop.  The thread sets @kdamond to NULL when it terminates.
 172 * Therefore, users can know whether the monitoring is ongoing or terminated by
 173 * reading @kdamond.  Reads and writes to @kdamond and @kdamond_stop from
 174 * outside of the monitoring thread must be protected by @kdamond_lock.
 175 *
 176 * Note that the monitoring thread protects only @kdamond and @kdamond_stop via
 177 * @kdamond_lock.  Accesses to other fields must be protected by themselves.
 178 *
 179 * @primitive:  Set of monitoring primitives for given use cases.
 180 * @callback:   Set of callbacks for monitoring events notifications.
 181 *
 182 * @min_nr_regions:     The minimum number of adaptive monitoring regions.
 183 * @max_nr_regions:     The maximum number of adaptive monitoring regions.
 184 * @adaptive_targets:   Head of monitoring targets (&damon_target) list.
