Currently incorrect default hugepage pool size is reported by proc nr_hugepages when number of pages for the default huge page size is specified twice. When multiple huge page sizes are supported, /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages indicates the current number of pre-allocated huge pages of the default size. Basically /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages displays default_hstate-> max_huge_pages and after boot time pre-allocation, max_huge_pages should equal the number of pre-allocated pages (nr_hugepages). Test case: Note that this is specific to x86 architecture. Boot the kernel with command line option 'default_hugepagesz=1G hugepages=X hugepagesz=2M hugepages=Y hugepagesz=1G hugepages=Z'. After boot, 'cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages' and 'sysctl -a | grep hugepages' returns the value X. However, dmesg output shows that Z huge pages were pre-allocated. So, the root cause of the problem here is that the global variable default_hstate_max_huge_pages is set if a default huge page size is specified (directly or indirectly) on the command line. After the command line processing in hugetlb_init, if default_hstate_max_huge_pages is set, the value is assigned to default_hstae.max_huge_pages. However, default_hstate.max_huge_pages may have already been set based on the number of pre-allocated huge pages of default_hstate size. The solution to this problem is if hstate->max_huge_pages is already set then it should not set as a result of global max_huge_pages value. Basically if the value of the variable hugepages is set multiple times on a command line for a specific supported hugepagesize then proc layer should consider the last specified value.
