The sysfs interface for DAMON quota goals includes a `current_value` file.
This file is not updated by the kernel and only serves to receive user
input.
Clarify in the documentation that the kernel does not update
`current_value`, and that reading it only has meaning when `target_metric`
is set to `user_input`.
While at it, fix missing commas in the goal files list.

``damon_target_idx`` was wrongly written as ``target_idx`` in the docs.
Fix it all over the place, as well as the wrong directory count, grammar,
etc.

Patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: document filters/ directory as deprecated".
Commit ab71d2d30121 ("mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: let
damon_sysfs_scheme_set_filters() be used for different named directories")
introduced alternatives of 'filters' directory, namely core_filters/ and
'ops_filters/ directories. Now the alternatives are well stabilized and
ready for all users. All filters/ directory use cases are expected to be
able to be migrated to the alternatives. An LTS kernel having the
alternatives, namely 6.18.y, is also released. Existence of filters/
directory is only confusing.
It would be better not immediately removing the directory, though. There
could be users that need time before migrating to the alternatives. There
might be unexpected use cases that the alternatives cannot support. Doing
the deprecation step by step across multiple years like DAMON debugfs
deprecation would be safer. Start the deprecation changes by announcing
the deprecation on the documents.
Every year, one more action for completely removing the directory will be
followed, like DAMON debugfs deprecation did. Following yearly actions
are currently expected. In 2027, deprecation warning kernel messages will
be printed once, for use of filters/ directory. In 2028, filters/
directory will be renamed to filters_DEPRECATED/. In 2029,
filters_DEPRECATED/ directory will be removed.
This patch (of 2):
The alternatives of 'filters/' directory, namely 'core_filters/' and
'ops_filters/', can fully support all the features 'filters/' directory
can do, and provide better user experience. Having 'filters/' directory
is only confusing to users. Announce it as deprecated on the usage
document.

DAMON_LRU_SORT handles commit_inputs request inside kdamond thread,
reading the module parameters. If the user updates the module
parameters while the kdamond thread is reading those, races can happen.
To avoid this, the commit_inputs parameter shows whether it is still in
the progress, assuming users wouldn't update parameters in the middle of
the work. Some users might ignore that. Add a warning about the
behavior.

Patch series "Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon: warn commit_inputs vs other
params race".
Writing 'Y' to the commit_inputs parameter of DAMON_RECLAIM and
DAMON_LRU_SORT, and writing other parameters before the commit_inputs
request is completely processed can cause race conditions. While the
consequence can be bad, the documentation is not clearly describing that.
Add clear warnings.

The current DAMON implementation requires 'min_nr_regions' to be at least
3. However, this constraint is not explicitly documented in the
admin-guide documents, nor is its design rationale explained in the design
document.
Add a section in design.rst to explain the rationale: the virtual address
space monitoring design needs to handle at least three regions to
accommodate two large unmapped areas. While this is specific to 'vaddr',
DAMON currently enforces it across all operation sets for consistency.
Also update reclaim.rst and lru_sort.rst by adding cross-references to
this constraint within their respective 'min_nr_regions' parameter
description sections, ensuring users are aware of the lower bound.
This change is motivated from a recent discussion [1].

Commit cc7ceb1d14b0 ("mm/damon/stat: expose the current tuned aggregation
interval"), has introduced 'aggr_interval_us' parameter for DAMON_STAT.
But the new parameter is not yet documented. Document it on the usage
document for the module.

Committing a monitoring target with empty target regions is for keeping
the current monitoring results. This behavior was introduced by commit
973233600676 ("mm/damon/sysfs: update monitoring target regions for online
input commit"). The behavior is not documented, though. Update the usage
document for clarifying this behavior.

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It has been a relatively busy cycle in docsland, with changes all
over:
- Bring the kernel memory-model docs into the Sphinx build in the
"literal include" mode.
- Lots of build-infrastructure work, further cleaning up long-term
kernel-doc technical debt. The sphinx-pre-install tool has been
converted to Python and updated for current systems.
- A new tool to detect when documents have been moved and generate
HTML redirects; this can be used on kernel.org (or any other site
hosting the rendered docs) to avoid breaking links.
- Automated processing of the YAML files describing the netlink
protocol.
- A significant update of the maintainer's PGP guide.
... and a seemingly endless series of typo fixes, build-problem fixes,
etc"

The example command doesn't work [1] on the latest DAMON user-space tool,
since --damos_action option is updated to receive multiple arguments, and
hence cannot know if the final argument is for deductible monitoring
target or an argument for --damos_action option. Add --target_pid option
to let damo understand it is for target pid.

DAMON was initially developed only for data access monitoring, and then
extended for not only access monitoring but also access-aware system
operations (DAMOS). But the documents have old titles and brief
introductions for only the monitoring part. Update the titles and the
brief introductions to explain DAMOS part together.

DAMON sysfs usage doc is describing DAMOS filter type names and their

where to document new DAMOS filter types and features. Move the details

Two of DAMON user-space tool (damo) commands that are used for examples on
DAMON getting started document, namely 'damo show' and 'damo report heats'
are deprecated[1,2], and replaced by new commands that provides same
functions with unified and simplified user interfaces. Also the example
output of 'damo show' is outdated. 'damo schemes' command is not
deprecated, but users are recommended to use 'damo start' or 'damo tune'
instead.
Update the examples to use the replacements, recommendations, and
up-to-date output formats.
