The application uses the flag + * SHM_HUGETLB in the shmget system call to inform the kernel that it is + * requesting huge pages. + * + * For the ia64 architecture, the Linux kernel reserves Region number 4 for + * huge pages. That means that if one requires a fixed address, a huge page + * aligned address starting with 0x800000... will be required. If a fixed + * address is not required, the kernel will select an address in the proper + * range. + * Other architectures, such as ppc64, i386 or x86_64 are not so constrained. + * + * Note: The default shared memory limit is quite low on many kernels, + * you may need to increase it via: + * + * echo 268435456 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax + * + * This will increase the maximum size per shared memory segment to 256MB. + * The other limit that you will hit eventually is shmall which is the + * total amount of shared memory in pages.
