This implements a new kernel subsystem that finds cold memory regions using DAMON and reclaims those immediately. It is intended to be used as proactive lightweigh reclamation logic for light memory pressure. For heavy memory pressure, it could be inactivated and fall back to the traditional page-scanning based reclamation. It's implemented on top of DAMON framework to use the DAMON-based Operation Schemes (DAMOS) feature. It utilizes all the DAMOS features including speed limit, prioritization, and watermarks. It could be enabled and tuned in boot time via the kernel boot parameter, and in run time via its module parameters ('/sys/module/damon_reclaim/parameters/') interface.

This builds the DAMON-based reclamation subsystem. It finds pages

those.

This is suggested to be used as a proactive and lightweight

reclamation under light memory pressure, while the traditional page
|
|
scanning-based reclamation is used for heavy pressure.
