For hugely mapped thp, we use is_huge_zero_pmd() to check if it's zero page or not. We do fill ptes with my_zero_pfn() when we split zero thp pmd, but this is not what we have in vm_normal_page_pmd() -- pmd_trans_huge_lock() makes sure of it. This is a trivial fix for /proc/pid/numa_maps, and AFAIK nobody complains about it. Gerald Schaefer asked: : Maybe the description could also mention the symptom of this bug? : I would assume that it affects anon/dirty accounting in gather_pte_stats(), : for huge mappings, if zero page mappings are not correctly recognized. I came across this while I was looking at the code, so I'm not aware of any symptom.

README
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.
