From: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@xxxxxxxx>
Profiling a system blindly with mTHP has become challenging due
to the lack of visibility into its operations. Presenting the
success rate of mTHP allocations appears to be pressing need.
Recently, I've been experiencing significant difficulty debugging
performance improvements and regressions without these figures.
It's crucial for us to understand the true effectiveness of
mTHP in real-world scenarios, especially in systems with
fragmented memory.
This patch sets up the framework for per-order mTHP counters,
starting with the introduction of anon_alloc_success and
anon_alloc_fail counters. Incorporating additional counters
should now be straightforward as well.

-v3:
* save some memory as order-0 and order-1 can't be THP, Ryan;
* rename to anon_alloc as right now we only support anon to address
David's comment;
* drop a redundant "else", Ryan

Maybe use a prefix that resembles matches the enum name and is "obviously"
different to the ones in vm_event_item.h, like
enum thp_event {
THP_EVENT_ANON_ALLOC_SUCCESS,
THP_EVENT_ANON_ALLOC_FAIL,
__THP_EVENT_COUNT,
};
FWIW, I'd personally replace "event" with "stat". For me "event" only ever
increments, but "stat" can increment and decrement. An event is a type of stat.
You are only adding events for now, but we have identified a need for inc/dec
stats that will be added in future.
What about the below?
enum thp_stat {
It seems we still need to use enum thp_stat_item rather than thp_stat.
This follows
enum zone_stat_item
enum numa_stat_item
enum node_stat_item
Right, we can do that.

ok.
Hi David, Ryan,
I've named everything as follows. Please let me know if you have any further
suggestions before I send the updated version :-)

Final bikeshedding: so we want to call all of that MTHP_, mthp_ etc, to
make it clearer that this is per mTHP size?
