Hi Guys,

  Marry X-MAS to you ALL.

  I am re-starting the long paused libhugetlb porting for MIPS. 

  One quick question - Is there any additional driver/kernel component to 
support libhugetlbfs that i may have to port for MIPS ? 

  I have already ported the basic hugetlb (except MAP_PRIVATE) for MIPS and i 
can 
allocate MAP_SHARED hugepages thru mmap/shmem. I am using linux 2.6.21 and 
hugetlbfs 2.1 release.

Cheers,
Mehul.

Mehul,

We do not keep a porting howto around in the code base but we are open to
taking notes on any difficulties you run into.  I have included the 
libhugetlbfs-devel mailing list on the reply, that will be the best place
for you to start looking for answers.  Sorry I cannot be more help, but
the mailing list is very open for questions.
