* Example of using hugepage memory in a user application using the mmap
|
|
* system call with MAP_HUGETLB flag. Before running this program make
|
|
* sure the administrator has allocated enough default sized huge pages
|
|
* to cover the 256 MB allocation.
|
|
*
|
|
* For ia64 architecture, Linux kernel reserves Region number 4 for hugepages.
|
|
* That means the addresses starting with 0x800000... will need to be
|
|
* specified. Specifying a fixed address is not required on ppc64, i386
|
|
* or x86_64.
