[PATCH 1/4] mm/damon/core: intorduce per-context region priorities histogram buffer

From: SeongJae Park
Date: Mon Aug 26 2024 - 00:23:41 EST


Introduce per-context buffer for region priority scores-total size
histogram. Same to the per-quota one (->histogram of
struct damos_quota), the new buffer is hidden from DAMON API users by
being defined as a private field of DAMON context structure. It is
dynamically allocated and de-allocated at the beginning and ending of
the execution of the kdamond by kdamond_fn() itself.

[1] commit 0742cadf5e4c ("mm/damon/lru_sort: adjust local variable to dynamic allocation")
