mm, thp: fix mlock statistics
NR_MLOCK is only accounted in single page units: there's no logic to
handle transparent hugepages. This patch checks the appropriate number of
pages to adjust the statistics by so that the correct amount of memory is
reflected.
Currently:
$ grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo
Mlocked: 19636 kB
#define MAP_SIZE (4 << 30) /* 4GB */
void *ptr = mmap(NULL, MAP_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0);
mlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);
$ grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo
Mlocked: 29844 kB
munlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);
$ grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo
Mlocked: 19636 kB
And with this patch:
$ grep Mlock /proc/meminfo
Mlocked: 19636 kB
mlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);
$ grep Mlock /proc/meminfo
Mlocked: 4213664 kB
munlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);
$ grep Mlock /proc/meminfo
Mlocked: 19636 kB
