I was playing with huge pages and libhugetlbfs.  Small programs like

it gets stuck like this:
Do you mean 2.6.22-rc1-mm1 or 2.6.23-rc1-mm1?

There was a hugepage problem fixed very recently, in 2.6.23-rc1 IIRC.

Actually fixed just after 2.6.23-rc1:

git describe 5ab3ee7b1cd5c91eb2272764f9d7d1fe4749681e
v2.6.23-rc1-14-g5ab3ee7

Looks to me like Andrew included Ken's patch in his rc1-mm1 anyway,
so that shouldn't be the issue.  Or did I not read mm/hugetlb.c correctly?
