HUGEEDIT(7)HUGEEDIT(7)NAMEhugeedit - Set default policy for backing text and data with hugepages
SYNOPSIShugeedit binary
hugeedit [options] binary
DESCRIPTION
hugectl runs processes with a specific policy for backing memory
regions with hugepages. Ordinarily when processes are relinked with
libhugetlbfs using the recommended linking method, either hugectl is
required on each execution or environment variables must be set for
each execution. hugeedit can be used to set bits in the ELF header that
determine if the text or data segments are backed by default without
further intervention.
If no arguments are specified, hugeedit will display what the current
defaults for each segment in a binary are. The available options are
--text Back the text segments of the binary by default.
--data Back the data segments of the binary by default
--disable
Back all segments using small pages by default
