The static global variable @console_locked is used to help debug
VT code to make sure that certain code paths are running with
the console_lock held. However, this information is also available
with the static global variable @console_kthreads_blocked (for
locking via console_lock()), and the static global variable
@console_kthreads_active (for locking via console_trylock()).
Remove @console_locked and update is_console_locked() to use the
alternative variables.

Currently threaded console printers synchronize against each
other using console_lock(). However, different console drivers
are unrelated and do not require any synchronization between
each other. Removing the synchronization between the threaded
console printers will allow each console to print at its own
speed.
But the threaded consoles printers do still need to synchronize
against console_lock() callers. Introduce a per-console mutex
and a new console boolean field @blocked to provide this
synchronization.
console_lock() is modified so that it must acquire the mutex
of each console in order to set the @blocked field. Console
printing threads will acquire their mutex while printing a
record. If @blocked was set, the thread will go back to sleep
instead of printing.
The reason for the @blocked boolean field is so that
console_lock() callers do not need to acquire multiple console
mutexes simultaneously, which would introduce unnecessary
complexity due to nested mutex locking. Also, a new field
was chosen instead of adding a new @flags value so that the
blocked status could be checked without concern of reading
inconsistent values due to @flags updates from other contexts.
Threaded console printers also need to synchronize against
console_trylock() callers. Since console_trylock() may be
called from any context, the per-console mutex cannot be used
for this synchronization. (mutex_trylock() cannot be called
from atomic contexts.) Introduce a global atomic counter to
identify if any threaded printers are active. The threaded
printers will also check the atomic counter to identify if the
console has been locked by another task via console_trylock().
Note that @console_sem is still used to provide synchronization
between console_lock() and console_trylock() callers.
A locking overview for console_lock(), console_trylock(), and the
threaded printers is as follows (pseudo code):
console_lock()
{
down(&console_sem);
for_each_console(con) {
mutex_lock(&con->lock);
con->blocked = true;
mutex_unlock(&con->lock);
}
/* console_lock acquired */
}
console_trylock()
{
if (down_trylock(&console_sem) == 0) {
if (atomic_cmpxchg(&console_kthreads_active, 0, -1) == 0) {
/* console_lock acquired */
}
}
}
threaded_printer()
{
mutex_lock(&con->lock);
if (!con->blocked) {
/* console_lock() callers blocked */
if (atomic_inc_unless_negative(&console_kthreads_active)) {
/* console_trylock() callers blocked */
con->write();
atomic_dec(&console_lock_count);
}
}
mutex_unlock(&con->lock);
}
The console owner and waiter logic now only applies between contexts
that have taken the console_lock via console_trylock(). Threaded
printers never take the console_lock, so they do not have a
console_lock to handover. Tasks that have used console_lock() will
block the threaded printers using a mutex and if the console_lock
is handed over to an atomic context, it would be unable to unblock
the threaded printers. However, the console_trylock() case is
really the only scenario that is interesting for handovers anyway.
@panic_console_dropped must change to atomic_t since it is no longer
protected exclusively by the console_lock.
Since threaded printers remain asleep if they see that the console
is locked, they now must be explicitly woken in __console_unlock().
This means wake_up_klogd() calls following a console_unlock() are
no longer necessary and are removed.
Also note that threaded printers no longer need to check
@console_suspended. The check for the @blocked field implicitly
covers the suspended console case.

Create a kthread for each console to perform console printing. During
normal operation (@system_state == SYSTEM_RUNNING), the kthread
printers are responsible for all printing on their respective
consoles.
During non-normal operation, console printing is done as it has been:
within the context of the printk caller or within irqwork triggered
by the printk caller, referred to as direct printing.
Since threaded console printers are responsible for all printing
during normal operation, this also includes messages generated via
deferred printk calls. If direct printing is in effect during a
deferred printk call, the queued irqwork will perform the direct
printing. To make it clear that this is the only time that the
irqwork will perform direct printing, rename the flag
PRINTK_PENDING_OUTPUT to PRINTK_PENDING_DIRECT_OUTPUT.
Threaded console printers synchronize against each other and against
console lockers by taking the console lock for each message that is
printed.
Note that the kthread printers do not care about direct printing.
They will always try to print if new records are available. They can
be blocked by direct printing, but will be woken again once direct
printing is finished.
Console unregistration is a bit tricky because the associated
kthread printer cannot be stopped while the console lock is held.
A policy is implemented that states: whichever task clears
con->thread (under the console lock) is responsible for stopping
the kthread. unregister_console() will clear con->thread while
the console lock is held and then stop the kthread after releasing
the console lock.
For consoles that have implemented the exit() callback, the kthread
is stopped before exit() is called.

Once kthread printing is available, console printing will no longer
occur in the context of the printk caller. However, there are some
special contexts where it is desirable for the printk caller to
directly print out kernel messages. Using pr_flush() to wait for
threaded printers is only possible if the caller is in a sleepable
context and the kthreads are active. That is not always the case.
Introduce printk_prefer_direct_enter() and printk_prefer_direct_exit()
functions to explicitly (and globally) activate/deactivate preferred
direct console printing. The term "direct console printing" refers to
printing to all enabled consoles from the context of the printk
caller. The term "prefer" is used because this type of printing is
only best effort. If the console is currently locked or other
printers are already actively printing, the printk caller will need
to rely on the other contexts to handle the printing.
This preferred direct printing is how all printing has been handled
until now (unless it was explicitly deferred).
When kthread printing is introduced, there may be some unanticipated
problems due to kthreads being unable to flush important messages.
In order to minimize such risks, preferred direct printing is
activated for the primary important messages when the system
experiences general types of major errors. These are:
- emergency reboot/shutdown
- cpu and rcu stalls
- hard and soft lockups
- hung tasks
- warn
- sysrq
Note that since kthread printing does not yet exist, no behavior
changes result from this commit. This is only implementing the
counter and marking the various places where preferred direct
printing is active.

Extended consoles print extended messages and do not print messages about
dropped records.
Non-extended consoles print "normal" messages as well as extra messages
about dropped records.
Currently the buffers for these various message types are defined within
the functions that might use them and their usage is based upon the
CON_EXTENDED flag. This will be a problem when moving to kthread printers
because each printer must be able to provide its own buffers.
Move all the message buffer definitions outside of
console_emit_next_record(). The caller knows if extended or dropped
messages should be printed and can specify the appropriate buffers to
use. The console_emit_next_record() and call_console_driver() functions
can know what to print based on whether specified buffers are non-NULL.
With this change, buffer definition/allocation/specification is separated
from the code that does the various types of string printing.

Refactor/rework printing logic in order to prepare for moving to
threaded console printing.
- Move @console_seq into struct console so that the current
"position" of each console can be tracked individually.
- Move @console_dropped into struct console so that the current drop
count of each console can be tracked individually.
- Modify printing logic so that each console independently loads,
prepares, and prints its next record.
- Remove exclusive_console logic. Since console positions are
handled independently, replaying past records occurs naturally.
- Update the comments explaining why preemption is disabled while
printing from printk() context.
With these changes, there is a change in behavior: the console
replaying the log (formerly exclusive console) will no longer block
other consoles. New messages appear on the other consoles while the
newly added console is still replaying.

When printk() is called from safe or NMI contexts, it will directly
store the record (vprintk_store()) and then defer the console output.
However, defer_console_output() only causes console printing and does
not wake any waiters of new records.
Wake waiters from defer_console_output() so that they also are aware
of the new records from safe and NMI contexts.

It is important that any new records are visible to preparing
waiters before the waker checks if the wait queue is empty.
Otherwise it is possible that:
- there are new records available
- the waker sees an empty wait queue and does not wake
- the preparing waiter sees no new records and begins to wait
This is exactly the problem that the function description of
waitqueue_active() warns about.
Use wq_has_sleeper() instead of waitqueue_active() because it
includes the necessary full memory barrier.

Since the printk cpulock is CPU-reentrant and since it is used
in all contexts, its usage must be carefully considered and
most likely will require programming locklessly. To avoid
mistaking the printk cpulock as a typical lock, rename it to
cpu_sync. The main functions then become:
printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave(flags);
printk_cpu_sync_put_irqrestore(flags);
Add extra notes of caution in the function description to help
developers understand the requirements for correct usage.

This commit makes DAMON sysfs interface supports the DAMON-based operation
schemes (DAMOS) feature. Specifically, this commit adds 'schemes'
directory under each context direcotry, and makes kdamond 'state' file
writing respects the contents in the directory.
Note that this commit doesn't support all features of DAMOS but only the
target access pattern and action feature. Supports for quotas,
prioritization, watermarks will follow.
As a result, the files hierarchy becomes as below:

This commit links the DAMON sysfs interface to DAMON so that users can
control DAMON via the interface. In detail, this commit makes writing
'on' to 'state' file constructs DAMON contexts based on values that users
have written to relevant sysfs files and start the context. It supports
only virtual address spaces monitoring at the moment, though.
The files hierarchy of DAMON sysfs interface after this commit is shown
below. In the below figure, parents-children relations are represented
with indentations, each directory is having ``/`` suffix, and files in
each directory are separated by comma (",").
/sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin
│ kdamonds/nr_kdamonds
│ │ 0/state,pid
│ │ │ contexts/nr_contexts
│ │ │ │ 0/operations

│ │ │ │ │ │ nr_regions/min,max
│ │ │ │ │ targets/nr_targets
│ │ │ │ │ │ 0/pid_target
│ │ │ │ │ │ ...
│ │ │ │ ...
│ │ ...
The usage is straightforward. Writing a number ('N') to each 'nr_*' file
makes directories named '0' to 'N-1'. Users can construct DAMON contexts
by writing proper values to the files in the straightforward manner and
start each kdamond by writing 'on' to 'kdamonds/<N>/state'.

DAMON's debugfs-based user interface served very well, so far. However,
it unnecessarily depends on debugfs, while DAMON is not aimed to be used
for only debugging. Also, the interface receives multiple values via one
file. For example, schemes file receives 18 values separated by white
spaces. As a result, it is ineffient, hard to be used, and difficult to
be extended. Especially, keeping backward compatibility of user space
tools is getting only challenging. It would be better to implement
another reliable and flexible interface and deprecate the debugfs
interface in long term.
To this end, this commit implements a stub of a part of the new user
interface of DAMON using sysfs. Specifically, this commit implements the
sysfs control parts for virtual address space monitoring.
More specifically, the idea of the new interface is, using directory
hierarchies and making one file for one value. The hierarchy that this
commit is introducing is as below. In the below figure, parents-children
relations are represented with indentations, each directory is having
``/`` suffix, and files in each directory are separated by comma (",").
/sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin
│ kdamonds/nr_kdamonds
│ │ 0/state,pid
│ │ │ contexts/nr_contexts
│ │ │ │ 0/operations
│ │ │ │ │ monitoring_attrs/
│ │ │ │ │ │ intervals/sample_us,aggr_us,update_us
│ │ │ │ │ │ nr_regions/min,max
│ │ │ │ │ targets/nr_targets
│ │ │ │ │ │ 0/pid_target
│ │ │ │ │ │ ...
│ │ │ │ ...
│ │ ...
Writing a number <N> to each 'nr' file makes directories of name <0> to
<N-1> in the directory of the 'nr' file. That's all this commit does.
Writing proper values to relevant files will construct the DAMON contexts,
and writing a special keyword, 'on', to 'state' files for each kdamond
will ask DAMON to start the constructed contexts.
For a short example, using below commands for monitoring virtual address
spaces of a given workload is imaginable:
# cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/
# echo 1 > kdamonds/nr_kdamonds
# echo 1 > kdamonds/0/contexts/nr_contexts
# echo vaddr > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/operations
# echo 1 > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/nr_targets
# echo $(pidof <workload>) > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/0/pid_target
# echo on > kdamonds/0/state
Please note that this commit is implementing only the sysfs part stub as
abovely mentioned. This commit doesn't implement the special keywords for
'state' files. Following commits will do that.

Patch series "Introduce DAMON sysfs interface", v3.
Introduction
============
DAMON's debugfs-based user interface (DAMON_DBGFS) served very well, so
far. However, it unnecessarily depends on debugfs, while DAMON is not
aimed to be used for only debugging. Also, the interface receives
multiple values via one file. For example, schemes file receives 18
values. As a result, it is inefficient, hard to be used, and difficult to
be extended. Especially, keeping backward compatibility of user space
tools is getting only challenging. It would be better to implement
another reliable and flexible interface and deprecate DAMON_DBGFS in long
term.
For the reason, this patchset introduces a sysfs-based new user interface
of DAMON. The idea of the new interface is, using directory hierarchies
and having one dedicated file for each value. For a short example, users
can do the virtual address monitoring via the interface as below:
# cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/
# echo 1 > kdamonds/nr_kdamonds
# echo 1 > kdamonds/0/contexts/nr_contexts
# echo vaddr > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/operations
# echo 1 > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/nr_targets
# echo $(pidof <workload>) > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/0/pid_target
# echo on > kdamonds/0/state
A brief representation of the files hierarchy of DAMON sysfs interface is
as below. Childs are represented with indentation, directories are having
'/' suffix, and files in each directory are separated by comma.

│ kdamonds/nr_kdamonds

Detailed usage of the files will be described in the final Documentation
patch of this patchset.
Main Difference Between DAMON_DBGFS and DAMON_SYSFS
---------------------------------------------------
At the moment, DAMON_DBGFS and DAMON_SYSFS provides same features. One
important difference between them is their exclusiveness. DAMON_DBGFS
works in an exclusive manner, so that no DAMON worker thread (kdamond) in
the system can run concurrently and interfere somehow. For the reason,
DAMON_DBGFS asks users to construct all monitoring contexts and start them
at once. It's not a big problem but makes the operation a little bit
complex and unflexible.
For more flexible usage, DAMON_SYSFS moves the responsibility of
preventing any possible interference to the admins and work in a
non-exclusive manner. That is, users can configure and start contexts one
by one. Note that DAMON respects both exclusive groups and non-exclusive
groups of contexts, in a manner similar to that of reader-writer locks.
That is, if any exclusive monitoring contexts (e.g., contexts that started
via DAMON_DBGFS) are running, DAMON_SYSFS does not start new contexts, and
vice versa.
Future Plan of DAMON_DBGFS Deprecation
======================================
Once this patchset is merged, DAMON_DBGFS development will be frozen.
That is, we will maintain it to work as is now so that no users will be
break. But, it will not be extended to provide any new feature of DAMON.
The support will be continued only until next LTS release. After that, we
will drop DAMON_DBGFS.
User-space Tooling Compatibility
--------------------------------
As DAMON_SYSFS provides all features of DAMON_DBGFS, all user space
tooling can move to DAMON_SYSFS. As we will continue supporting
DAMON_DBGFS until next LTS kernel release, user space tools would have
enough time to move to DAMON_SYSFS.
The official user space tool, damo[1], is already supporting both
DAMON_SYSFS and DAMON_DBGFS. Both correctness tests[2] and performance
tests[3] of DAMON using DAMON_SYSFS also passed.

[2] https://github.com/awslabs/damon-tests/tree/master/corr
[3] https://github.com/awslabs/damon-tests/tree/master/perf
Sequence of Patches
===================
First two patches (patches 1-2) make core changes for DAMON_SYSFS. The
first one (patch 1) allows non-exclusive DAMON contexts so that
DAMON_SYSFS can work in non-exclusive mode, while the second one (patch 2)
adds size of DAMON enum types so that DAMON API users can safely iterate
the enums.
Third patch (patch 3) implements basic sysfs stub for virtual address
spaces monitoring. Note that this implements only sysfs files and DAMON
is not linked. Fourth patch (patch 4) links the DAMON_SYSFS to DAMON so
that users can control DAMON using the sysfs files.
Following six patches (patches 5-10) implements other DAMON features that
DAMON_DBGFS supports one by one (physical address space monitoring,
DAMON-based operation schemes, schemes quotas, schemes prioritization
weights, schemes watermarks, and schemes stats).
Following patch (patch 11) adds a simple selftest for DAMON_SYSFS, and the
final one (patch 12) documents DAMON_SYSFS.
This patch (of 13):
To avoid interference between DAMON contexts monitoring overlapping memory
regions, damon_start() works in an exclusive manner. That is,
damon_start() does nothing bug fails if any context that started by
another instance of the function is still running. This makes its usage a
little bit restrictive. However, admins could aware each DAMON usage and
address such interferences on their own in some cases.
This commit hence implements non-exclusive mode of the function and allows
the callers to select the mode. Note that the exclusive groups and
non-exclusive groups of contexts will respect each other in a manner
similar to that of reader-writer locks. Therefore, this commit will not
cause any behavioral change to the exclusive groups.

In DAMON's early development stage before it be merged in the mainline, it
was first designed to work exclusively with Idle page tracking to avoid
any interference between each other. Later, but still before be merged in
the mainline, because Idle page tracking is fully under the control of
sysadmins, we made the resolving of conflict as the responsibility of
sysadmins. The document is not updated for the change, though. This
commit updates the document for that.

Patch series "Docs/damon: Update documents for better consistency".
Some of DAMON document are not properly updated for latest version. This
patchset updates such parts.
This patch (of 3):
DAMON code calls the low level monitoring primitives implementations the
monitoring operations. The documentation would have no problem at still
calling those primitives implementation because there is no real
difference in the concepts, but making it more consistent with the code
would make it better. This commit therefore convert sentences in the doc
specifically pointing the implementations of the primitives to call it
monitoring operations.

assumes setting empty monitoring operations makes DAMON debugfs interface
believe the target of the context don't have pid. This commit fixes the
kunit test fails by explicitly setting the context's monitoring operations
with the operations for the physical address space, which let debugfs

DAMON debugfs interface depends on monitoring operations for virtual
address spaces because it knows if the target has pid or not by seeing if
the context is configured to use one of the virtual address space
monitoring operation functions. We can replace that check with 'enum
damon_ops_id' now, to make it independent. This commit makes the change.

use, and therefore it makes no sense to build DAMON_RECLAIM without
DAMON_PADDR.

In-kernel DAMON user code like DAMON debugfs interface should set 'struct
damon_operations' of its 'struct damon_ctx' on its own. Therefore, the
client code should depend on all supporting monitoring operations
implementations that it could use. For example, DAMON debugfs interface
depends on both vaddr and paddr, while some of the users are not always
interested in both.
To minimize such unnecessary dependencies, this commit makes the
monitoring operations can be registered by implementing code and then
dynamically selected by the user code without build-time dependency.

Patch series "Allow DAMON user code independent of monitoring primitives".
In-kernel DAMON user code is required to configure the monitoring context
(struct damon_ctx) with proper monitoring primitives (struct
damon_primitive). This makes the user code dependent to all supporting
monitoring primitives. For example, DAMON debugfs interface depends on
both DAMON_VADDR and DAMON_PADDR, though some users have interest in only
one use case. As more monitoring primitives are introduced, the problem
will be bigger.
To minimize such unnecessary dependency, this patchset makes monitoring
primitives can be registered by the implemnting code and later dynamically
searched and selected by the user code.
In addition to that, this patchset renames monitoring primitives to
monitoring operations, which is more easy to intuitively understand what
it means and how it would be structed.
This patch (of 8):
DAMON has a set of callback functions called monitoring primitives and let
it can be configured with various implementations for easy extension for
different address spaces and usages. However, the word 'primitive' is not
so explicit. Meanwhile, many other structs resembles similar purpose
calls themselves 'operations'. To make the code easier to be understood,
this commit renames 'damon_primitives' to 'damon_operations' before it is
too late to rename.

It will never get a NULL page by pte_page() as discussed in thread [1],
thus remove the redundant page validation to fix below Smatch static
checker warning.
mm/damon/vaddr.c:405 damon_hugetlb_mkold()
warn: 'page' can't be NULL.

DAMON asks each monitoring target ('struct damon_target') to have one
'unsigned long' integer called 'id', which should be unique among the
targets of same monitoring context. Meaning of it is, however, totally up
to the monitoring primitives that registered to the monitoring context.
For example, the virtual address spaces monitoring primitives treats the
id as a 'struct pid' pointer.
This makes the code flexible, but ugly, not well-documented, and
type-unsafe[1]. Also, identification of each target can be done via its
index. For the reason, this commit removes the concept and uses clear
type definition. For now, only 'struct pid' pointer is used for the
virtual address spaces monitoring. If DAMON is extended in future so that
we need to put another identifier field in the struct, we will use a union
for such primitives-dependent fields and document which primitives are
using which type.

damon_set_targets() function is defined in the core for general use cases,
but called from only dbgfs. Also, because the function is for general use
cases, dbgfs does additional handling of pid type target id case. To make
the situation simpler, this commit moves the function into dbgfs and makes
it to do the pid type case handling on its own.

A previous commit made init_regions debugfs file to use target index
instead of target id for specifying the target of the init regions. This
commit updates the usage document to reflect the change.

Patch series "Remove the type-unclear target id concept".
DAMON asks each monitoring target ('struct damon_target') to have one
'unsigned long' integer called 'id', which should be unique among the
targets of same monitoring context. Meaning of it is, however, totally up
to the monitoring primitives that registered to the monitoring context.
For example, the virtual address spaces monitoring primitives treats the
id as a 'struct pid' pointer.
This makes the code flexible but ugly, not well-documented, and
type-unsafe[1]. Also, identification of each target can be done via its
index. For the reason, this patchset removes the concept and uses clear
type definition.

This patch (of 4):
Target id is a 'unsigned long' data, which can be interpreted differently
by each monitoring primitives. For example, it means 'struct pid *' for
the virtual address spaces monitoring, while it means nothing but an
integer to be displayed to debugfs interface users for the physical
address space monitoring. It's flexible but makes code ugly and
type-unsafe[1].
To be prepared for eventual removal of the concept, this commit removes a
use case of the concept in 'init_regions' debugfs file handling. In
detail, this commit replaces use of the id with the index of each target
in the context's targets list.

The local variable ret is always 0. Remove it to make code more tight.
