call, then it is required that system administrator mount a file system of
type hugetlbfs:
- mount none /mnt/huge -t hugetlbfs <uid=value> <gid=value> <mode=value>
- <size=value> <nr_inodes=value>
+ mount -t hugetlbfs \
+ -o uid=<value>,gid=<value>,mode=<value>,size=<value>,nr_inodes=<value> \
+ none /mnt/huge
This command mounts a (pseudo) filesystem of type hugetlbfs on the directory
/mnt/huge. Any files created on /mnt/huge uses hugepages. The uid and gid
By default the value 0755 is picked. The size option sets the maximum value of
memory (huge pages) allowed for that filesystem (/mnt/huge). The size is
rounded down to HPAGE_SIZE. The option nr_inodes sets the maximum number of
-inodes that /mnt/huge can use. If the size or nr_inodes options are not
+inodes that /mnt/huge can use. If the size or nr_inodes option is not
provided on command line then no limits are set. For size and nr_inodes
options, you can use [G|g]/[M|m]/[K|k] to represent giga/mega/kilo. For
-example, size=2K has the same meaning as size=2048. An example is given at
-the end of this document.
+example, size=2K has the same meaning as size=2048.
read and write system calls are not supported on files that reside on hugetlb
file systems.
