mm/damon/ops-common: avoid divide-by-zero during region hotness calculation

When calculating the hotness of each region for the under-quota regions
prioritization, DAMON divides some values by the maximum nr_accesses.
However, due to the type of the related variables, simple division-based
calculation of the divisor can return zero. As a result, divide-by-zero
is possible. Fix it by using damon_max_nr_accesses(), which handles the
case.

damon: use pmdp_get instead of drectly dereferencing pmd

As ptep_get, Use the pmdp_get wrapper when we accessing pmdval instead of

mm: ptep_get() conversion

Convert all instances of direct pte_t* dereferencing to instead use
ptep_get() helper. This means that by default, the accesses change from a
C dereference to a READ_ONCE(). This is technically the correct thing to
do since where pgtables are modified by HW (for access/dirty) they are
volatile and therefore we should always ensure READ_ONCE() semantics.

But more importantly, by always using the helper, it can be overridden by
the architecture to fully encapsulate the contents of the pte. Arch code
is deliberately not converted, as the arch code knows best. It is
intended that arch code (arm64) will override the default with its own
implementation that can (e.g.) hide certain bits from the core code, or
determine young/dirty status by mixing in state from another source.

Conversion was done using Coccinelle:

----

// $ make coccicheck \
// COCCI=ptepget.cocci \
// SPFLAGS="--include-headers" \
// MODE=patch

virtual patch

@ depends on patch @
pte_t *v;
@@

- *v
+ ptep_get(v)

----

Then reviewed and hand-edited to avoid multiple unnecessary calls to
ptep_get(), instead opting to store the result of a single call in a
variable, where it is correct to do so. This aims to negate any cost of
READ_ONCE() and will benefit arch-overrides that may be more complex.

Included is a fix for an issue in an earlier version of this patch that
was pointed out by kernel test robot. The issue arose because config
MMU=n elides definition of the ptep helper functions, including
ptep_get(). HUGETLB_PAGE=n configs still define a simple
huge_ptep_clear_flush() for linking purposes, which dereferences the ptep.
So when both configs are disabled, this caused a build error because
ptep_get() is not defined. Fix by continuing to do a direct dereference
when MMU=n. This is safe because for this config the arch code cannot be
trying to virtualize the ptes because none of the ptep helpers are
defined.

mm/damon/ops-common: atomically test and clear young on ptes and pmds

It is racy to non-atomically read a pte, then clear the young bit, then
write it back as this could discard dirty information. Further, it is bad
practice to directly set a pte entry within a table. Instead clearing
young must go through the arch-provided helper,
ptep_test_and_clear_young() to ensure it is modified atomically and to
give the arch code visibility and allow it to check (and potentially
modify) the operation.

damon_pageout_score() to do that. But now there are also other

mm/damon/core: use a dedicated struct for monitoring attributes

DAMON monitoring attributes are directly defined as fields of 'struct
damon_ctx'. This makes 'struct damon_ctx' a little long and complicated.
This commit defines and uses a struct, 'struct damon_attrs', which is
dedicated for only the monitoring attributes to make the purpose of the
five values clearer and simplify 'struct damon_ctx'.

mm/damon/schemes: add 'LRU_PRIO' DAMOS action

This commit adds a new DAMOS action called 'LRU_PRIO' for the physical
address space. The action prioritizes pages in the memory regions of the
user-specified target access pattern on their LRU lists. This is hence
supposed to be used for frequently accessed (hot) memory regions so that
hot pages could be more likely protected under memory pressure.
Internally, it simply calls 'mark_page_accessed()'.

mm/damon: rename damon_primitives to damon_operations

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.
