mm: show total hugetlb memory consumption in /proc/meminfo
Currently we display some hugepage statistics (total, free, etc) in /proc/meminfo, but only for default hugepage size (e.g. 2Mb). If hugepages of different sizes are used (like 2Mb and 1Gb on x86-64), /proc/meminfo output can be confusing, as non-default sized hugepages are not reflected at all, and there are no signs that they are existing and consuming system memory. To solve this problem, let's display the total amount of memory, consumed by hugetlb pages of all sized (both free and used). Let's call it "Hugetlb", and display size in kB to match generic /proc/meminfo style. For example, (1024 2Mb pages and 2 1Gb pages are pre-allocated): $ cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 8168984 kB MemFree: 3789276 kB <...> CmaFree: 0 kB HugePages_Total: 1024 HugePages_Free: 1024 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 HugePages_Surp: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB Hugetlb: 4194304 kB DirectMap4k: 32632 kB DirectMap2M: 4161536 kB DirectMap1G: 6291456 kB Also, this patch updates corresponding docs to reflect Hugetlb entry meaning and difference between Hugetlb and HugePages_Total * Hugepagesize.
