Preload library to back program memory with hugepages

libhugetlbfs is a library which provides easy access to huge pages of memory. It is a wrapper for the hugetlbfs file system. Applications can use huge pages to fulfill malloc() requests without being recompiled by using LD_PRELOAD. Alternatively, applications can be linked against libhugetlbfs without source modifications to load text or BSS or BSS, data, and text segments into large pages. The library also comes with several userspace tools to help with huge page usability, environment setup, and control.
