Now, when reading /proc/PID/smaps, the PMD migration entry in page table is simply ignored. To improve the accuracy of /proc/PID/smaps, its parsing and processing is added. To test the patch, we run pmbench to eat 400 MB memory in background, then run /usr/bin/migratepages and `cat /proc/PID/smaps` every second. The issue as follows can be reproduced within 60 seconds. Before the patch, for the fully populated 400 MB anonymous VMA, some THP pages under migration may be lost as below. 7f3f6a7e5000-7f3f837e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 Size: 409600 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB Rss: 407552 kB Pss: 407552 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 0 kB Private_Dirty: 407552 kB Referenced: 301056 kB Anonymous: 407552 kB LazyFree: 0 kB AnonHugePages: 405504 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 0 kB FilePmdMapped: 0 kB Shared_Hugetlb: 0 kB Private_Hugetlb: 0 kB Swap: 0 kB SwapPss: 0 kB Locked: 0 kB THPeligible: 1 VmFlags: rd wr mr mw me ac After the patch, it will be always, 7f3f6a7e5000-7f3f837e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 Size: 409600 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB Rss: 409600 kB Pss: 409600 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 0 kB Private_Dirty: 409600 kB Referenced: 294912 kB Anonymous: 409600 kB LazyFree: 0 kB AnonHugePages: 407552 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 0 kB FilePmdMapped: 0 kB Shared_Hugetlb: 0 kB Private_Hugetlb: 0 kB Swap: 0 kB SwapPss: 0 kB Locked: 0 kB THPeligible: 1 VmFlags: rd wr mr mw me ac Signed-off-by: "Huang, Ying" <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
