Hi Everyone,

I am currently experimenting with DAMON to gather memory access
statistics for virtual address ranges associated with specific
processes. I have followed the detailed instructions provided in the
usage documentation, but it's unclear where to find the resulting
memory access statistics.
 Any pointers on where to get these statistics?

Steps
# 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 masim) > kdamonds/0/contexts/0/targets/0/pid_target
# echo on > kdamonds/0/state

Thanks & Regards,
Lokesh

Hi Lokesh,


Sorry for late reply.  Somehow I missed this mail.

After the above steps, you can get the monitoring results from 'tried_regions'
directory[1] of the sysfs interface, or by collecting damon:damon_aggregatred
tracepoint[2].

However, I'd recommend using the user-space tool, 'damo'[3], if you could.  It
provides more human-friendly interface and visualization of the monitoring
results.  For example, the above step could be reduced to single command like
below:

    $ sudo damo start $(pidof masim)

Then you could show the monitoring results snapshot in realtime like below:

    $ sudo damo show
    0   addr [4.000 GiB   , 16.245 GiB ) (12.245 GiB ) access 0 %   age 7 m 32.100 s
    1   addr [16.245 GiB  , 28.529 GiB ) (12.284 GiB ) access 0 %   age 12 m 40.500 s
    2   addr [28.529 GiB  , 40.800 GiB ) (12.271 GiB ) access 0 %   age 15 m 10.100 s
    3   addr [40.800 GiB  , 52.866 GiB ) (12.066 GiB ) access 0 %   age 15 m 58.600 s
    4   addr [52.866 GiB  , 65.121 GiB ) (12.255 GiB ) access 0 %   age 16 m 15.900 s
    5   addr [65.121 GiB  , 77.312 GiB ) (12.191 GiB ) access 0 %   age 16 m 22.400 s
    6   addr [77.312 GiB  , 89.537 GiB ) (12.225 GiB ) access 0 %   age 16 m 24.200 s
    7   addr [89.537 GiB  , 101.824 GiB) (12.287 GiB ) access 0 %   age 16 m 25 s
    8   addr [101.824 GiB , 126.938 GiB) (25.114 GiB ) access 0 %   age 16 m 25.300 s
    total size: 122.938 GiB

The above is only a small part of the features of the tool.  You can get more
details of the tool from its usage document[4].

Sounds good! Thank you for the pointers; I will check them out.

Thanks & Regards,
