Subject[PATCH] mm/damon: improve damon_new_region strategy
Date
Kdamond is implemented as a periodical split-merge pattern, which will
create and destroy regions possibly on high frequency(hundreds or even
thousands of per sec), depending on number of regions and aggregation
period. In that case, kmalloc and kfree could bring considerable overhead
to system, which can be improved by private kmem cache.
