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