   1 /*
   2  * hugepage-mmap:
   3  *
   4  * Example of using huge page memory in a user application using the mmap
   5  * system call.  Before running this application, make sure that the
   6  * administrator has mounted the hugetlbfs filesystem (on some directory
   7  * like /mnt) using the command mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt. In this
   8  * example, the app is requesting memory of size 256MB that is backed by
   9  * huge pages.
  10  *
  11  * For the ia64 architecture, the Linux kernel reserves Region number 4 for
  12  * huge pages.  That means that if one requires a fixed address, a huge page
  13  * aligned address starting with 0x800000... will be required.  If a fixed
  14  * address is not required, the kernel will select an address in the proper
  15  * range.
  16  * Other architectures, such as ppc64, i386 or x86_64 are not so constrained.
