File kvm-qemu-preXX-qemu_vmalloc-align-properly-for-transparent-hugepag.patch of Package kvm
From 36b586284e678da28df3af9fd0907d2b16f9311c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Date: Mon, 5 Sep 2011 11:07:05 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] qemu_vmalloc: align properly for transparent hugepages and KVM To make good use of transparent hugepages, KVM requires that guest-physical and host-virtual addresses share the low 21 bits (as opposed to just the low 12 bits normally required). Adjust qemu_vmalloc() to honor that requirement. Ignore it for small regions to avoid fragmentation.
