Subject: [RFC] mm/thp: Update mm's MM_ANONPAGES stat in set_huge_zero_page()
Date: Thu, 13 May 2021 12:50:38 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1620890438-9127-1-git-send-email-anshuman.khandual@arm.com> (raw)

Although the zero huge page is being shared across various processes, each
mapping needs to update its mm's MM_ANONPAGES stat by HPAGE_PMD_NR in order
to be consistent. This just updates the stats in set_huge_zero_page() after
the mapping gets created.

Should it update MM_SHMEM_PAGES instead ? Applies on latest mainline.
