I am also working with Raghu to integrate his kmmdscan [3] as the
hotness source and use kpromoted for migration.

Raghu also mentioned he would try to take a time to look into DAMON if there is
anything that he could reuse for the purpose. I'm curious if he was able to
find something there.

Hello SJ,

I did take a look at DAMON vaddr and paddr implementation. Also
wondering how can I optimize hotness data collected by kmmscand.

DAMON regions should be very helpful here, But I am not there yet.

will surely need help brainstorming session post my next RFC.

Thanks and Regards
