Thank you for waiting. I back-ported this patchset and another one for the
physical address space monitoring[1] on v4.9.140. The source code is available
at DAMON development tree[2].

BTW, I can also agree to Greg's opinion. For the reason, I also back-ported
the patches on latest v4.9.y[3]. I'd like to suggest you to try that first if
possible. I also hope this patchset to be merged in mainline in near future,
so that NVIDIA be attracted by DAMON and thus forward-port their drivers on the
latest mainline version.

Nevertheless, DAMOS[4] and DAMON_RECLAIM[5] patchsets are not back-ported
because those need more works, and you are apparently interested in only the
monitoring part.

Please note that this backport is for only one-time. In other words, I will
not backport the patches for every future 4.9.y release. Nevertheless, if you
need another backport, please remember I'm here for you.

Finally, a disclaimer. I did only minimal test for this, as below:

$ git clone https://github.com/sjp38/masim; make -C masim/
$ git clone https://github.com/awslabs/damo
$ # monitor a virtual address space of a process
$ sudo ./damo/damo record "./masim/masim ./masim/configs/zigzag.cfg"
$ ./damo/damo report heats --heatmap stdout
