This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled MIPS: add PMD table accounting into MIPS'pmd_alloc_one to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: mips-add-pmd-table-accounting-into-mips-pmd_alloc_on.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 6bf7414c5f99d9a29d3470e32e7df63da539c8fe Author: Huang Pei <huangpei@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jun 11 15:09:46 2021 +0800 MIPS: add PMD table accounting into MIPS'pmd_alloc_one [ Upstream commit ed914d48b6a1040d1039d371b56273d422c0081e ] This fixes Page Table accounting bug. MIPS is the ONLY arch just defining __HAVE_ARCH_PMD_ALLOC_ONE alone. Since commit b2b29d6d011944 (mm: account PMD tables like PTE tables), "pmd_free" in asm-generic with PMD table accounting and "pmd_alloc_one" in MIPS without PMD table accounting causes PageTable accounting number negative, which read by global_zone_page_state(), always returns 0.
