Maintaining DAMON (https://damonitor.github.io). All opinions are my own.
DAMON user-space tool, damo, v2.4.3[1] is now available. The version supports showing access pattern, memory footprints, and hotspot functions all at once on live. An animated-gif for that is available[2].

I created a logo for DAMON using DAMON, just for fun.

You could also create some for yourself. For detailed instructions: https://sjp38.github.io/post/damon_heatmap_logo/

ATC'24 also published two DAMON-citing papers at the same time. The first one[1] proposes a way to improve monitoring accuracy of DAMON, while the second one[2] mentions DAMON can be useful for extensible memory management (mm-ext? ;) ).

DAMO v2.4.2 [1] is out. It makes the report more holistic with hotspot functions in addition to the heatmap, wss, and memory footprints. Refer to USAGE[2] for details and an example report.

I just posted DAMON quaterly news letter for 2024-Q2.

Highlights of highlights: DAMON gained a feature for CXL-based tiered memory management. HacKerMaiL (hkml), a simple mailing tool that DAMON maintainer is developing, made an official commitment to support DAMON community.

As the DAMON maintainer and an AWS employee, I _strive_ to be the best employer of DAMON community. Assisting onboarding of new members is an important part of it.

I'm hence marking[1] 'HacKerMaiL' as a mailing tool for DAMON community that the maintainer is committed to support.

Hackermail v1.1.0[1] is just pushed with a number of features. Now it can be used for reading general patch files or commits with the built-in lore/commits-explorer. Also most hkml features are integrated into the interactive interface. Read the documentation[2] for more details.

Lorenzo Stoakes

Very pleased to say that I've now finished the first draft of my book, The Linux Memory Manager.

https://linuxmemory.org/

This represents 2 years of evenings and weekends, tons of research, 99.9% from first principles and the kernel source.

There's still plenty of editing to go, but the content is written! 1,351 pages of it (!).

I am not sure on ultimate release date as it depends on how the edit goes, but we're closer now :)

As you can see from the pic, I'm very very tired but also very happy to have finished.

I think I'll chill for a while before I get back to a leisurely edit, read books, watch films, play games, spend time with my wife and cats and do a bunch of stuff the book took out of my life for a long while!

Now I'll go to bed early I think! :)
