Subject: mm/khugepaged: add per-order mTHP collapse failure statistics
Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 09:00:03 -0600

Add three new mTHP statistics to track collapse failures for different
orders when encountering swap PTEs, excessive none PTEs, and shared PTEs:

- collapse_exceed_swap_pte: Increment when mTHP collapse fails due to
	encountering a swap PTE.

- collapse_exceed_none_pte: Counts when mTHP collapse fails due to
  	exceeding the none PTE threshold for the given order

- collapse_exceed_shared_pte: Counts when mTHP collapse fails due to
	encountering a shared PTE.

These statistics complement the existing THP_SCAN_EXCEED_* events by
providing per-order granularity for mTHP collapse attempts.  The stats are
exposed via sysfs under
`/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-*/stats/` for each
supported hugepage size.

As we currently do not support collapsing mTHPs that contain a swap or
shared entry, those statistics keep track of how often we are encountering
failed mTHP collapses due to these restrictions.

We will add support for mTHP collapse for anonymous pages next; lets also
track when this happens at the PMD level within the per-mTHP stats.

 huge page for use. There are some counters in ``/proc/vmstat`` to help
