[Libhugetlbfs-devel] [patch] Add MIPS support to libhugetlbfs

2011-06-13 Thread Yu Huang
What the patch is: As we all known that libhugetlbfs only supports ppc, s390, sparc, ia64, x86 and x86_64 architecture. This patch make libhugetlbfs avaliable to MIPS architecture. What it does: This patch adds hugepage support to .bss .data .text and .heap segment in MIPS architect
