I talked about here with Qi-san, and probably I understand what he really 
wanted to ask here.

Currently, ndctl user can specify just "one" filter option, like --dimm nmem1,
but he/she can not specify 2 or more options like --dimm nmem1,nmem2,nmem3.

So, he would like to ask which we should select in the following.

  a) Change ndctl for users to be able to specify multiple filter option.
     This change affects not only daemon, but also ndctl list command.
     In addition, we need to decide how much filter can be specified.
  b) Keep current filter.
     To monitor plural area(dimm/region/namespace/bus), plural daemons
     are executed for each area which is specified one option.
     This does not require option change.

Though Qi-san wanted to select b) at this question,
it is just workaround, we should select a) I think...

Thanks,
