The /proc/meminfo file provides information about the total number of
persistent hugetlb pages in the kernel's huge page pool. It also displays
-information about the number of free, reserved and surplus huge pages and the
-default huge page size. The huge page size is needed for generating the
-proper alignment and size of the arguments to system calls that map huge page
-regions.
+default huge page size and information about the number of free, reserved
+and surplus huge pages in the pool of huge pages of default size.
+The huge page size is needed for generating the proper alignment and
+size of the arguments to system calls that map huge page regions.
The output of "cat /proc/meminfo" will include lines like:
.....

-HugePages_Free: www
-HugePages_Rsvd: xxx
-HugePages_Surp: yyy

where:
HugePages_Total is the size of the pool of huge pages.
the pool above the value in /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages. The
maximum number of surplus huge pages is controlled by
/proc/sys/vm/nr_overcommit_hugepages.
+Hugepagesize is the default hugepage size (in Kb).
+Hugetlb is the total amount of memory (in kB), consumed by huge
+ pages of all sizes.
+ If huge pages of different sizes are in use, this number
+ will exceed HugePages_Total * Hugepagesize. To get more

/proc/filesystems should also show a filesystem of type "hugetlbfs" configured
in the kernel.
