  * Add --no-reseve to hugectl to request mmap'd pages are not reserved
    for kernels newer than 2.6.34

    allocated following the process NUMA memory policy
  * Add switch to let administrator limit new mount points by size or inodes
  * cpupcstat now caches the value returned by tlmiss_cost.sh to avoid
    rerunning the script
  * When specifying huge page pool sizes with hugeadm, memory sizes can
    be used as well as the number of huge pages
  * DEFAULT is now a valid huge page pool for resizing, it will adjust
    the pool for the default huge page size
  * tlbmiss_cost.sh in the contrib/ sub directory will estimate the cost
    in CPU cycles of a TLB miss on the arch where it is run
  * Add python script which automates huge page pool setup with minimal
    input required from user
  * cpupcstat now supports data collection using the perf tool as well as
    oprofile

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jun 25 11:31:01 CEST 2008 - olh@suse.de

- update to version 1.3
  New features
  * Add HUGETLB_NO_PREFAULT to control prefaulting of huge pages via mlock
  * Add "[hostname:pid]" to output messages
  * Setup for handling larger huge page sizes e.g. 16G huge pages

  * Replace gethugepagesize with check_hugepagesize for error checking
  * Make morecore argument a long to handle larger page sizes
  
  Tets suite fixes
  * Check uid/gid in tests where it matters
  * tests: verify there are enough huge pages
  * Change tests to read /proc/meminfo

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Apr 10 12:54:45 CEST 2008 - ro@suse.de

- added baselibs.conf file to build xxbit packages
  for multilib support

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 14 17:19:02 CET 2008 - olh@suse.de

- update to version 1.2
  New features
  * Partial segment remapping. This allows non-relinked binaries to try
    to take advantage of libhugetlbfs' segment remapping code. Large
    segments are required, especially on Power. This feature is useful
    for estimating huge page performance, however full relinking will
    still perform better.
  * Add extra debugging for binaries that may run out of address space.
  * Log library version when HUGETLB_VERBOSE is enabled.
  * New test to check handling of misaligned mmap() parameters.
  Bug fixes
  * Fix EH_FRAME segment. Fixes some C++ applications.
  * Rework PLT detection to work better on Power.
  * Add per-target-arch syscall stubs to the library. These provide
    reliable error messages from elflink.c if they occur while the
    program segments are unmapped.
  * Add proper SONAME to shared libs.
  * Makefile respects CFLAGS/LDFLAGS/CPPFLAGS environment variables.
  * Make mlock() failure non-fatal.
