Subject: [PATCH] mm/hugetlb: add htlb_dissolve vmstat event
Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2026 02:03:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261105020324.2011790-1-mkbund@amazon.com> (raw)

Memory offline and memory failure handling dissolve free hugetlb folios
and lower nr_hugepages. Nothing records this, so when the pool shrinks
it is hard to tell whether that or a write to nr_hugepages caused it.

Add an htlb_dissolve event, counted for each folio that
dissolve_free_hugetlb_folio() frees.
