Yes. Actually libhugetlbfs works well with normal remapping method. I
just tried to use LD_PRELOAD+HUGETLB_FORCE_ELFMAP and see what happens
:) I just concern (unsinged long)(slice_end - vaddr) returns
-1(0xffffffff).

Gaining the trust of online customers is vital for the success of any company
that requires sensitive data to be transmitted over the Web. Learn how to
best implement a security strategy that keeps consumers' information secure
and instills the confidence they need to proceed with transactions.
