[Andrew Morton]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm/sparse-vmemmap: fix DAX vmemmap accounting with optimization
has been added to the -mm mm-new branch.  Its filename is
     mm-sparse-vmemmap-fix-dax-vmemmap-accounting-with-optimization.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-sparse-vmemmap-fix-dax-vmemmap-accounting-with-optimization.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-new branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Note, mm-new is a provisional staging ground for work-in-progress
patches, and acceptance into mm-new is a notification for others take
notice and to finish up reviews.  Please do not hesitate to respond to
review feedback and post updated versions to replace or incrementally
fixup patches in mm-new.

The mm-new branch of mm.git is not included in linux-next

If a few days of testing in mm-new is successful, the patch will me moved
into mm.git's mm-unstable branch, which is included in linux-next

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***

The -mm tree is included into linux-next via various
branches at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
and is updated there most days

Subject: mm/sparse-vmemmap: fix DAX vmemmap accounting with optimization
Date: Sun, 26 Apr 2026 17:26:38 +0800

When vmemmap optimization is enabled for DAX, the nr_memmap_pages counter
in /proc/vmstat is incorrect.  The current code always accounts for the
full, non-optimized vmemmap size, but vmemmap optimization reduces the
actual number of vmemmap pages by reusing tail pages.  This causes the
system to overcount vmemmap usage, leading to inaccurate page statistics
in /proc/vmstat.

Fix this by introducing section_nr_vmemmap_pages(), which returns the
exact vmemmap page count for a given pfn range based on whether
optimization is in effect.
