Mike Kravetz 9903bd7b73 userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: add userfaultfd_hugetlb test
Test userfaultfd hugetlb functionality by using the existing testing
method (in userfaultfd.c).  Instead of an anonymous memeory, a hugetlbfs
file is mmap'ed private.  In this way fallocate hole punch can be used
to release pages.  This is because madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) is not
supported for huge pages.

Use the same file, but create wrappers for allocating ranges and
releasing pages.  Compile userfaultfd.c with HUGETLB_TEST defined to
produce an executable to test userfaultfd hugetlb functionality.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
