It is a sample since the purpose is to give an idea about how it can be implemented and perform, rather than be used on general production setups. Especially, it supports only two tiers memory setup having only one CPU-attached NUMA node.

For the system operations, DAMON provides a feature called DAMOS (Data Access Monitoring-based Operation Schemes). There is no sample API usage of DAMOS, though. Copy the working set size estimation sample modules with changed names of the module and symbols, to use it as a skeleton for a sample module showing the DAMOS API usage. The following commit will make it proactively reclaim cold memory of the given process, using DAMOS.

Implement a proactive cold memory regions reclaiming logic of prcl sample module using DAMOS.

This patch (of 5): Add a skeleton for a sample DAMON static module that can be used for estimating working set size of a given process. Note that it is a static module since DAMON is not exporting symbols to loadable modules for now. It exposes two module parameters, namely 'pid' and 'enable'. 'pid' will specify the process that the module will estimate the working set size of. 'enable' will receive whether to start or stop the estimation. Because this is just a skeleton, the parameters do nothing, though. The functionalities will be implemented by following commits.
