Since commit 8561c9244d
"exec: allocate PROT_NONE pages on top of
RAM", it is no longer possible to back guest RAM with hugepages on ppc64
hosts:
mmap(NULL, 285212672, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =
0x3fff57000000
mmap(0x3fff57000000, 268435456, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 19, 0) = -1 EBUSY (Device or resource busy)
This is because on ppc64, Linux fixes a page size for a virtual address
at mmap time, so we can't switch a range of memory from anonymous
small pages to hugetlbs with MAP_FIXED.
See commit d0f13e3c20b6fb73ccb467bdca97fa7cf5a574cd
("[POWERPC] Introduce address space "slices"") in Linux
history for the details.
Detect this and create the PROT_NONE mapping using the same fd.
Naturally, this makes the guard page bigger with hugetlbfs.
Based on patch by Greg Kurz.
