In addition, MM_ANONPAGES stats should be decreased at zap_huge_pmd() and __split_huge_pmd_locked() when the zero huge page mapping is removed from a process, right? > > Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: Zi Yan <ziy@xxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: linux-mm@xxxxxxxxx > Cc: linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Signed-off-by: Anshuman Khandual <anshuman.khandual@xxxxxxx> > --- > Should it update MM_SHMEM_PAGES instead ? Applies on latest mainline. zero huge page is added via do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), I think MM_ANONPAGES is appropriate. > > mm/huge_memory.c | 1 + > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) > > diff --git a/mm/huge_memory.c b/mm/huge_memory.c > index 63ed6b25deaa..262703304807 100644 > --- a/mm/huge_memory.c > +++ b/mm/huge_memory.c > @@ -706,6 +706,7 @@ static void set_huge_zero_page(pgtable_t pgtable, struct mm_struct *mm, > if (pgtable) > pgtable_trans_huge_deposit(mm, pmd, pgtable); > set_pmd_at(mm, haddr, pmd, entry); > + add_mm_counter(mm, MM_ANONPAGES, HPAGE_PMD_NR); > mm_inc_nr_ptes(mm); > } > > -- > 2.20.1 — Best Regards, Yan Zi
