    [PATCH] /proc/meminfo alterations for hugetlbpages · 75a08275

    The patch from Rohit and David M-T changes the hugetlb page info in
    /proc/meminfo slightly.
    
    It makes the identifiers a little clearer while ensuring that we don't
    add any identifiers which have whitespace.  glibc is/shall be parsing
    this information to determine the size and alignment requirements of
    the hugetlb pages.
    
    This basically means that procfs is a requirement for successful
    hugetlb page usage.  Not very nice, but I suspect real-world userspace
    fails without procfs anyway.
