mm/damon/sysfs: link DAMON for virtual address spaces monitoring
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 │ │ │ │ │ monitoring_attrs/ │ │ │ │ │ │ intervals/sample_us,aggr_us,update_us │ │ │ │ │ │ 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'.
