libhugetlbfs 2.7 "Adobo" ====================================================================== New Features * When specifying huge page pool sizes with hugeadm, memory sizes can be used as well as the number of huge pages * DEFAULT is now a valid huge page pool for resizing, it will adjust the pool for the default huge page size * tlbmiss_cost.sh in the contrib/ sub directory will estimate the cost in CPU cycles of a TLB miss on the arch where it is run * Add python script which automates huge page pool setup with minimal input required from user Bug Fixes * The --dry-run switch in hugeadm is now obeyed * hugeadm now uses unsigned long long for page resizes to avoid overflow errors * --set-recommended-shmmax no longer overflows if the number of available huge pages is bigger than the address space Test Suite * Updated linkhuge_nofd to override proper functions when testing * run_tests.py can now monitor the pool sizes between tests to help identify accounting errors * Add test for mremap bug on architectures with holes in address space -- Eric B Munson IBM Linux Technology Center [email protected]
